More proof Angela Corey is a monster

20 years! Wow. Listening there Zimmerman?:

Woman fires warning shot against her abusive husband. She gets 20 YEARS. She's black so how come Sharpton and company aren't out parading? I think this is far more worse a travesty of justice.

Oh wait, it's black on black. No one in the black community cares about that stuff. It's "business as usual".

Saying he had no discretion under state law, a judge sentenced a Jacksonville, Florida, woman to 20 years in prison Friday for firing a warning shot in an effort to scare off her abusive husband.
Marissa Alexander unsuccessfully tried to use Florida's controversial "stand your ground" law to derail the prosecution, but a jury in March convicted her of aggravated assault after just 12 minutes of deliberation.

NOTE: Next time, just kill him. You would've done less prison time.

Yeah man, that has been covered here, it's a disaster...at the same time, the woman was offered a 3 - year sentence.

I have no issue with a woman shooting an abusive dude to death. But, I don't make the laws. Still, some prosecutorial discretion...

[JasonScandopolous]

Sounds like a good opportunity for a pardon.

Plea bargaining is bad for justice.
People that are guilty get lesser sentences due to pleas; those that fight for their innocence get caught in minimum sentence requirements if their gamble fails.

Welcome to our LOVELY justice system. It's been broken for decades but no one ever wants to fix it, cuz hey - it's fantastic at putting away poor people and giving rich people an edge

So it works as intended.

It's easy to find the solutions, but nobody wants to fix the problems.

Especially the people that are making lots of money off the status quo.
