WHERE IS THE JUSTICE????
Apparently you could shoot someone in the head and kill them. Then lie about it and say, the person shot himself, then turnaround and say, Oh, the room was dark and I didn't know what I was doing, Sorry I didn't mean it.
Donnie Reed was sentenced six years, three for the gun and three for killing a 22 year old millitary man.
SHAME ON OUR JUSTICE SYSTEM.......
Seems that Youngstown hasn't changed a bit. Clear the docket at ANYONE'S expense! Shame on YOU Paul Gains, Ken Cardinal and Mr.Sharsu!
