The case of the “Hiccup Girl” sentenced to life imprisonment.

In 2010, Jennifer Mee agreed to meet a young man named Shannon Griffin whom she contacted through social media; He agreed to meet her and the 22-year-old had the impression that he was going on a date with Jennifer and buying marijuana, but his motive was stealing and Jennifer used her two male friends to help her, but in the process of being. robbed, Shannon was shot four times. Under Florida law, everyone who participates in a robbery in which someone is killed is equally guilty of murder as the person who actually committed it.

Jennifer, by all accounts, was not even present at the scene or planning to kill him. It was later learned in court that, in communication with her mother, Jennifer said, “I didn’t kill anyone. I set everything up. Everything went wrong, Mom.” She was sentenced to life in prison without parole!

The ruling had stunned those who were interested in the case even casually.

Now the question has to be “Is this correct?”

The prosecutor may well justify himself by saying “this is Florida law”, but then the problem for me is this;

“Can legislators pass a law that can turn evil into good?”

To me, an evil is an evil and Jennifer received the same sentence as someone who is a serial killer.

If Florida law says Jennifer murdered because she was involved in a robbery in which someone died and was not even at the scene of the robbery, then there is something terribly flawed with Florida law, and those who live in the state live under it. law, therefore. Who else has been convicted in the same way?

It’s all very well to say, “This is Florida law,” but the law can’t think, but people can.

A law should be established that gives judges the power to use their discretion and judge each case on its own merits.

Politicians have a responsibility to establish just laws; they have the power to change the law, so the question is “What are they going to do about this unfair situation?”

It is all very well for current, past or future presidents of the United States to claim that they have organized the release of their citizens held in prisons abroad, but the American government really needs to examine the cases of some of their people in American prisons. they really should have their cases reviewed.

Jennifer was charged with murder, but should have been charged with manslaughter; According to my dictionary, involuntary manslaughter means accidental manslaughter, manslaughter, manslaughter without malice.

Florida has changed the definition of murder for any reason.
