This is an egregious example of attempting to cause real harm to someone through an abuse of the court system as you'll ever find. If this case isn't prosecuted, none should ever be. No one is saying this law is good or balanced. And you have now way of knowing how many people will be prosecuted for abusing this law. Your comments are as one-sided and jaded as those you continue to chastise for holding this case up as an example of how this law might be abused.

Her son made poor decisions. Judging only from the bodycam video that shooting was as justified as any I've ever seen. This deranged woman can't get over her son being dead due to his poor behavior and she's tormenting the officer involved. She should be in jail. If anyone needs to be in jail it's her. I wouldn't be surprised if she eventually winds up just like her son.

I wholeheartedly approve of the way Holmes is being prosecuted in this case. Not because I think it will cause those in power to reconsider what an awful law they've created, but because Susan Holmes deserves it for her actions. I'm under no illusion this will change things for Joe Citizen, but it'll sure as hell give Holmes an opportunity to rethink her actions and it will bring some relief to the victim, if only temporarily. This is not just about Holmes.

And YouTube sensation timmybmm is a freakin' idiot.
