Twin sisters, Breanta and Bryanna Johnson, were initially charged with attempted homicide, prosecutors said.
Breanta Johnson told investigators that she got her gun from her truck after arguing with Rodriguez. She then punched him in the face, knocking him to the ground, and she also admitted to kicking Rodriguez, according to authorities.
Investigators said Breanta Johnson didn’t admit to the shooting, claiming she could “not remember who or how the gun was taken from her during the altercation" and she stated "she ‘blacked out’ at that point during the fight,” WITI reported.
The shooter was identified as Breanta Johnson's twin sister, Bryanna Johnson, who pleaded guilty to -degree reckless injury and use of a dangerous weapon in December 2022.
On March 16, Bryanna Johnson was sentenced to serve 10 years in prison and five years extended supervision, WITI reported.
Breanta Johnson has a plea hearing set for March 21, officials said.
Bryanna Johnson apologized to Rodriguez during her sentencing and he told WITI that he does “feel for her” and believed the sentence was fair and “a step toward the healing process.”
[[she stated “she ‘blacked out’]]
That’s racist!
Is that better than 'chimped out'.?
