Los Angeles woman who beat elderly man with a brick sentenced to 15 years

LOS ANGELES — A Los Angeles woman has been sentenced to 15 years in prison in the beating of a 92-year-old man that was captured on video and shared widely on social media.

Thirty-year-old Laquisha Jones was sentenced Thursday following her no contest plea to elder abuse in December.

Prosecutors say Jones severely beat Rodolfo Rodriguez in the face with a brick on July 4 as the man was taking a walk. They say Rodriguez did nothing to provoke the attack.

A witness recorded video of Rodriguez as he sat dazed, his face bloodied, after being beaten. The witness, Misbel Borjas, also took a photo of a woman with a brick in her hand.

Borjas says Jones yelled at Rodriguez: "Go back to your country."

The case wasn't prosecuted as a hate crime.

The elephant in the room, no relation intended, is that blacks are starting to really dislike the Hispanics.

Works for them. They then blame whitey for the high incarceration rate.

That was a cruel and low thing to do to anybody, let alone an old man. In this sort of instance, I don’t care if he was here legally or not. He’s a human being who was not hurting anybody. Barbaric. She only pled guilty because there was so much clear evidence of an unprovoked assault.

If this wasn’t classified as a hate crime then I don’t know what would be. Sickening.
