Florida State Attorney Corey Seeks 60-Year Sentence for Marissa Alexander

[Chan790]

29. Jesus fucking Christ...when do we get rid of Angela Corey?

First, the Cristian Fernandez case in 2009. (Where she charged a 12-year old with murder as an adult, later pled to manslaughter. Afterwards, it came out that she had ordered him held in solitary confinement for months in the state prison; when this was reported in a Jacksonville newspaper, she threatened the reporter who broke the story in a one-page single-space letter on official stationary with a libel suit and (specious) criminal charges.)

Then, the first Marissa Alexander case.

Then, the Ronald Thompson miscarriage of justice. (She sought a 20-year sentence against a retired disabled 65-year-old Army veteran for firing two warning shots into ground during an attempted home invasion in 2009. When a superior court judge threw out the 20-year sentencing guideline as "a miscarriage of justice" and unconstitutional, she appealed, got the sentence reinstated back to 20 years. After that was thrown out in 2012 due to improper conduct by the presiding judge in the original case, she again sought 20 years before accepting a plea deal for time-served + 2 years...a total of 5 years.)

Then, the Trayvon Martin murder.

Then, the Jordan Davis murder.

Now, this witch-hunt against Alexander in the second case because she's pissy the court threw out her ill-obtained conviction.

I can't wait for Crist to beat the snot out of Scott so he can fire this woman and at-least undo some of the harm by commuting Alexander's sentence. By that time, Thompson will be out or nearly so, having served his full-term. (Edit: It turns out she's elected. We're going to be stuck with her forever.)
