 * Hello! I just want to second that the edit shouldn't be included. For one, the screwdrivers are already discussed in the article. As the public reaction section states: Additionally, early reports suggested that the teenagers had approached Goetz carrying "sharpened" screwdrivers;[93][94][95] those reports, too, were found to be false: The screwdrivers—Cabey carried two and Ramseur carried one—were not sharpened and, based on the available testimony, were not removed from Cabey's or Ramseur's pockets[93][9]—no witnesses reported seeing screwdrivers, and Goetz repeatedly denied he was threatened with them.[93][9][96] When Canty testified at Goetz's criminal trial, he said they were to be used to break into video arcade change boxes and not as weapons. For two, the relevance of the screwdrivers to the article is relatively minimal and not worth including in the lede, Goetz himself said that the screwdrivers were not brought out during the incident.--Jerome Frank Disciple (talk) 15:44, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
