    Lorincz allegedly “called [Owens’] children racial slurs”. But the attorney thought there was insufficient evidence that she had “hatred, spite, ill will or evil intent toward Owens”.

    A lot depends on the credibility of those allegations. If they’re good enough for the independent to report, shouldn’t they be good enough to support “ill will”?

      The independent reporting allegations means that they’re reporting what one of the parties is saying. Not that the independent has evidence of it. That’s as wrong as saying “They plead not guilty - if that’s good enough for the independent to report, shouldn’t it be enough to support them not being guilty?”

      Either way, it’s going to court, and likely she’ll be convicted of manslaughter.
