A white Florida woman who fatally shot a Black neighbor through her front door during an ongoing dispute over the neighbor’s boisterous children faces sentencing Monday for her manslaughter conviction.

Susan Lorincz, 60, was convicted in August of killing 35-year-old Ajike “A.J.” Owens by firing a single shot from her .380-caliber handgun in June 2023. Lorincz faces a maximum sentence of 30 years in state prison because a firearm was used.

The shooting was the culmination of a long-running argument between the two neighbors over Owens’ children playing in a grassy area at both of their houses in Ocala, about 80 miles (130 kilometers) northwest of Orlando.

      And loose gun laws, and racism, and the media stoking fear.

      Edit: I’m guessing she lived alone and had nothing better to do with her time, so let’s throw a lack of social support on the pile too.

          Looking at his previous respobses, this guy seems like a troll.

            No, no, that person has convinced me. Plus they’re very handsome. You can’t just come in and say things to unconvince me!

            What do you mean? I told you that you convinced me. What else do you want?
