since you are just "thinking" then you should not comment on the topic.


But you didn't post a source boo........


The time she called the police on him for domestic abuse, they got married 6 months later.......

And when the incident happened, there were no signs of struggle or that he was beating on her....

I've been caught up in the system a few times....You gon have to give me something a lil more concrete than internet chatter put out there to evoke an emotion.....

As I said, her sentence was malicious, but she still should have been charged with something, if you look at the facts of the case

First Ray Rice, now this. :snoop: Black feminists, bedwenches and CACs gonna use this story to further their war on black men. What this decision shows is that a black man can't even discipline his bytch without her pulling a firearm on him and getting away with it. She prolly provoked his ass into beating her. This is yet another chapter in the black female/white supremacist plot to destroy the black man. Anyone who disagrees with me is a simp ass, bytch ass, feminazi ass, moist wild mango fakkit. :scust:

Beverage Fridge, 3rd Row!!
I don't think he whooped her ass tho

breh he went to jail for attacking her

but a lot of the details of this case a were embellished though

the original story said she left the house, came back, and shot at her husband while the kids where with him.

but I'm glad she's free, their reasoning for locking her up was bullshyt

To be fair, she was obviously oversentenced, but she wasn't totally innocent here.

Yes her dude was abusive. She went in her car and got a gun and shot at him with her kids present and the door wasn't blocked so she had an opportunity to leave. She acted reckless because her kids could've been hit by the ricochet.

That being said the sentence was ridiculous and the problem here is this crazy ass 25 year mandatory minimums they have in Florida and other states. The judge himself even said the sentence was too harsh. The law says that if you fire a gun during the commission of a felony it's an automatic 25 years. It's dumb because it eliminates common sense judicial discretion. She wouldn't take a plea because she tried to fight with SYG as a defense. She lost and got football numbers when maybe a month or two in jail and some probation would've been more reasonable considering the situation and the history of abuse. So she tried to win with one dumb law (SYG) and lost and was therefore forced to suffer under another dumb law (mandatory minimum).

Anyway I'm glad she's out. The laws are fukked up

don't remember the particulars of her case but i vaguely remember the story. from memory, i remember they did her dirty and i'm glad she's free. if the ex was a threat to her life, she should defend herself the best she can.

And they're STILL trying to get her.

She'd be at the top of my pardon list if I was Obama, assuming they threw her in jail again.

There have been so many laws that have changed because of her case.

However, this was injustice. The 'State' prosecutor woman.......... She was overzealous with the entire case.

and they still want to screw her.
