      It’s a much higher legal burden to get a murder convictions though. Proving things like intentional malice is very tricky, especially if the prosecutor knows they’re likely to face an all white jury in rural Florida.

      1000 percent! 25 years is a slap on the wrist!

        well, it’s still life since she’s 60 years old….
        but, if you shoot someone through your door for banging on the door and yelling, that’s definitely trying to kill them.

    Gotta love how Karen’s come with the water works when they face consequences. The fuck are you crying for? You murdered a mother of 4 after terrorizing her and kids for years because you are a racist piece of shit. You now get to spend whatever few quality years you have left in prison, good riddance.

        we’re now at the point where the law doesn’t matter as they will just rewrite it to do whatever they want, get outta here with those legally true technicalities

          I think you overestimate how much Trump cares about a person like this, if nothing else.

    What a crazy unbelievable story! An all-white jury and a white judge found her guilty and sentenced her? In Florida?? That’s absolutely wild!

    The cops were still extremely racist, of course, but that was completely expected
