The officer also said that Sinclair approached him saying "Black Lives Matter" before allegedly confessing.

"I stabbed him, I'm a psychopath," he told the cop, followed by: "I'm the stabber."

The fundraising page detailed that Conner has a five-month-old son and that he cannot work for six weeks due to his injuries.
