White neighbor convicted of manslaughter in fatal shooting of Black mother is sentenced to 25 years.

Source: CNN

Susan Lorincz, the White woman who fatally shot Black neighbor Ajike “AJ” Owens through the door of her central Florida apartment during a dispute over children playing near her home, was sentenced Monday to 25 years in prison.

Owens’ family and prosecutors asked Lorincz receive the maximum penalty of 30 years.

Judge Robert Hodges, who called the crime a “very aggravated manslaughter,” said Lorincz’s lack of a criminal record played a part in him not giving the maximum sentence. Still, he said, Lorincz was in no imminent danger.

In August, a jury found Lorincz guilty of manslaughter for shooting through the front door of her apartment on June 2, 2023, and killing Owens, a 35-year-old mother of four, who had been knocking on Lorincz’s door.

She should have gotten 1st degree or 2nd. She knew she was going to kill that woman when she shot through the door at her. She baited her. At least she got tge maximum and in FL, you have to do at least 85% before parole is even considered.

Well, I guess 25 is better than 0. Should have been at least 2nd degree murder. LoisB Nov 25 #2

Lorincz said "she wished she could go back and change things." How far back?

Why did she buy a firearm in the first place?

Thanks to hatred and stupidity, Lorincz will spend her golden years behind grey bars.

her meals, health care, and shelter are guaranteed while millions of seniors will not be so fortunate as Trump crashes the economy.

Still, we mustn't be discourteous to Ms. Lorincz as we welcome her to new home for the next quarter of a century.

She hated the children playing near her condo, had yelled racist expletives at them on several occasions. Sheesh! When their mother tried to have a conversation with her neighbor, she was fatally shot through a closed door. Karen—I mean Susan— should've have just been on-brand and CALLED THE POLICE!!!!!

They were on their way and she knew it. That's why the judge said she wasn't in fear for her life and gave her the max. If I were on that jury, I'd have tried to give her at least 2nd degree. I think she knew she was going to kill that woman when she shot her through the door.
