Sad part is that this hug will be only thing that will continue to get play. Not the list of horrible things she done

I hope she gets her face kicked in in prison
she doesnt deserve shit. No criticism for the brother, if this helps him then good for him but she's a fake fuck through and through

I spent the past 2-3 days watching the court proceedings in the sentencing phase. It was astounding at how much of a saint the victim, Botham Jean, was. Like, almost parody levels of perfect, community helper, academic success, caring for his family and everyone around him, kinda guy. Every witness on his behalf elevated him as a person in ways I wasn't quite expecting. Even the evidence from his text messages showed how caring and kind a person he was.
Then on the other side, the only text messages we have of the murderer are her joking about how MLK's dead but black people can't keep quiet, about how racist dogs are cool and how she hates everyone but "you people," and how black cops are lazy and have poor work ethic. Also text messages indicating an affair.
She came into a dude's place while he was eating ice cream and watching TV, shot him real quick when evidence proves he didn't even approach her to even appear to be a threat, then she taunts him, then she worries about her job instead of his life.
The one real point in her favor is she helped a black, 67 year old woman from recovering from a cocaine addiction. That's nice.
Learn what, that we should let injustice happen because an old book tells us to?
Is it? Society is coded that the victims have to "forgive" or they become lesser. Ask any sexual assault or domestic violence survivor.
I get that; I'm saying that when we aren't given this level forgiveness/respect most of the time.
The Judge handed her a bible and a hug. The Brother said he hopes she finds Christ.
Its a fucking joke.
Yep constantly "oh you have to forgive its been years and he's changed." nah I'm good.
Yep. Pure insanity.
It looked weird live, but when you just type it like this, man does it sound even more messed up.
What I came here to say. We need to get off this "I forgive you" shit. By and large, these white supremacists do not give a fuck. I am beyond through with this crap.
I would have done something else with the bottle of champagne.
Jesus and here I thought I would only be thinking about the brothers gesture here
What the fuck even went down in this courtroom?
Was the entire trial a sympathy party for the accused?!?
The deeper down the rabbit hole we go the more fucked up this trial becomes
Rememebr their first move in investigating the shooting is searching Jean's apartment for weed? For reasons...
Think of it this way: was it the family members of the exceptional guy who was killed randomly in his own home that were hugged, or the racist murderer who sure likes to put on a show of sympathy?
At the end of the whole show, it's like the victim here was Guyger. It was really fucked up.
Sooo fucked up. As if having weed was a justification for murder
What was he gonna do? throw his weed at her?
Yo what the fuck is this? Does she hug every person that comes through her court because this is fucking weird as Hell.
Murder someone while they're eating ice cream and then get hugs for it. What the fuck.
On top of her comment where she said she should have been the one that was shot. Whole thing is making her look like some sort of victim.

The witnesses for Guyger today were crying before they even spoke on the stand, like she had been the one who was killed. Smart move. Botham's family didn't cry that much; maybe they should have shed more of those crocodile tears.
Looks like this came from a religious reason. Is there a reason why black Americans are such a devoutly Christian group? I never understood this since Christianity was used to justify slavery and colonialism. Asking as a white, irreligious, Canadian man.
