Follow up: The first shooter Ryan Mackenzie McLean was given two life sentences yesterday, Elrich Delona Smith the second shooter goes on trial November 13th.
The system is working.
Follow up: The second shooter Elrich Delona Smith found guilty on all counts!!!!
Sentencing in January 2013.
Giving Warren Brown credit, he would be the first to admit he would rather have his perps tried in the city over the county.
"Both (Warren Brown) and William "Billy" Murphy, another high-profile African-American defense attorney who endorsed Bernstein, say defendants they've represented have long expected an easy pass in city courts. "Believe it or not, criminals pay attention to the courts and how they work," Murphy says. "They know it's a revolving door they're walking through. If that steel door is a one-way door, that affects their behavior. They don't want to walk through it. That's real."
Life without parole for Elrich Delona Smith!!!!! The system worked.
Good for the system. Let's hope they both live the rest of their lives in jail. It doesn't always work that way. Death penalty would assure that neither causes any trouble ever again.
