Marissa Alexander’s 20-years mandatory prison sentence, where’s the damn community outrage? | Chocolate City: The Best African American Blog

Marissa Alexander’s 20-years mandatory prison sentence, where’s the damn community outrage? | Chocolate City: The Best African American Blog: "If you haven't been following Alexander's story, please allow me to recap the events that led to her getting slammed with a senseless and unjust mandatory twenty year sentence.

Alexander is serving “mandatory twenty year sentence,” for shooting a warning shot into the air after her abusive husband, Rico Gray, threatened to kill her. Nobody was hurt in that case. Alexander unsuccessfully tried to use Florida's controversial "Stand Your Ground" as her defense, but a jury convicted her of aggravated assault after ONLY 12 minutes of deliberation."
