Douglasville, GA is 35% white, 60% black.
The judge is white.
A grand jury indicted 15 people in the Respect the Flag group.
Judge William McClain said at sentencing that Torres, 26, and Norton, 25, had committed a hate crime.
But Georgia does not have a hate crime statute.
Sounds possible that the racism wasn’t necessarily all on the side of defendants.
If true, they will be out on Appeal. Dumba$$ judge. I grew up in Douglasville. It was majority white back then. I left there in '77.
