[MUST-READ] 16 year old girl sentence to life without parole for killing her pimp

[elboriyorker]

after looking at this video.I thought about the judicial system in American for the juvenile delinquents and how harsh our government can be. Mind you she has no prior criminal record, she excel in school,she was brought up by a crack addicted mother and a father that was not around.

I believe in punishment.But if i was a judge before handing the the punishment i would like to know about her background, Is she a trouble kid? and so on.

She was taken under the wing of a pimp who took advantage of her and her age.And the pimp took advantage of her because she was young and used her,She had no one to guide her but a pimp that wanted her for financial gain.Is it wrong to kill him? YES, should she spent the rest of her life in jail ? NO

look at the video and make your judgment !!!

Re 16 year old girl sentence to life without parole for killing her pimp

thats very sad, that poor girl really had no chance...sometimes the jusges heads r up their butts, she should not be in prison for life, there r cases where monsters should be and arent...normally i am very against charging a juv as a juv when they kill someone but this would be the exception, there was a case in michigan detroit where this punk did and armed robbery and killed the woman at around midnight was his family are saying oh poor him, his mother is a piece of crap just like he is.....aafter being a detroit cop for 10 years that is one of the reasons why i dont believe in our justice system...sorry to rant on pb but i really feel sorry for this girl...........

Re: 16 year old girl sentence to life without parole for killing her pimp

i odnt think life was fair in this case for what she did.... a murder charge yes but being at age 16 and the situation that surrounded it i feel the judge should have taken some of that into consideration sicne it wasnt a straight random violent act but one that she did to protect herself and try to change... i feel for her but at the same time i dont, its one of those cases where you go both ways in my opinion

yea, she should be punish for it because took another life, especially she had the means to leave, rather it's from him or to another state.But she is a minor and minors don't have the capacity to think link an adult and we can't judge that.

I've done some crazy shit when i was young and now that I'm an old adult hahaha.I reflect back and said wow that was wrong....

man this is sad ... poor thing went thru hell with GG ..... I'm glad that she acknowledges the fact that she did wrong and that she needed punishment, but the life sentence in jail is too much ..... she'd already spent 13 years in prison .... wow unbelievable.

When you are placed in a situation as to where your parents don't care and they are drug addicts nonetheless Children look for some form of guidance from other places, they may be the wrong place but how would they know? Being on the streets at such a young age is not at all easy, never has been and never will be. By the time someone at such a young age finds/figures it out it's usually too late. Yes what she did was wrong, yes I do believe she learned her lesson, yes she does deserved to be punished for what she did. Does the punishment fit the crime at the age? Quite possibly she was not thinking clearly, her mind was clouded and she was thinking of all the negative things that he had done to her. True that might not have been her only option but that was the only option of getting out as far as she could see. She has done a lot of growing up, she knows what she did is wrong and as we can see in the video she is a person that shows some kind of feelings and emotions for what she has done. I think the punishment was a bit too much and she should not have to spend the rest of her life in jail. Truthfully and all honestly she never got to live at all.

Good lord at 13 trained to be a prostitute used her for sex that really is ridiculious what she got as a sentence...At 13 no dad mom addicted to drugs..probably not angel herself but comon 13? u dont know what the hell is good or bad....i guess finally realized what gg was doing wasnt right and really took it upon herself to kill the son of _____...but life sentence without parole that insane theres people that kill(adult) and be out in no time...they just say they acted insane out of control crazy and there of the hook..

well said !!!! I think this is one of the cases that the judge should look at,And consider a light sentence.

I don't know if you guys remember this, but a few years back a 12 year old boy was horse playing with his youngest brother playing wwf wrestling.He was trying to imitated a move that one of his favorite wrestler was doing to his younger brother, which at the time he was i believe 6 or 7 years old.Long story short, he ending up killing his brother from that wrestling move.The judge convicted him as an adult and it currently doing life for his brother death.

Now how the hell will you convicted a kid that is 12 years old, which at the time of the incident was not malicious act.But was playing recklessly that cause a death of another person (child)
all i know that it was a big controversy about it.I never heard from the case ever again.Now don't you think the the judicial system should be re-looked ?????

I remember exactly what you are talking about. That was a horrible thing for them to do to him. Yes the judicial system needs to be looked at again and re-evaluated and re-written. Man made laws have so many loops and holes and angels and places that just don't add up correctly. The system for the law is always being added to and things are not taken into consideration. I am sure they knew that, that boy did not intentionally kill his brother.

Re: 16 year old girl sentence to life without parole for killing her pimp

That doesn't seem to be justice. The situation should definitely have had some bearing on her sentence. In this case it doesn't seem to have had any bearing in the judge's mind. Sad very sad...
