The sentence my son’s killer got was an injustice
Charlotte Observer (via Yahoo) ^ | 11/7/2021 | Elizabeth Allen

Posted on 11/07/2021 2:34:39 AM PST by markomalley

My son Christian Allen and I almost died during childbirth. From the start, he was always stubborn and tenacious. He also was the one who would be there the second he was needed.

He was an amazing football player at East Mecklenburg High School and had many accomplishments. He had a niece who he absolutely adored.

Chris didn’t get to graduate high school or go to college. I will never see his children, his education or his accomplishments. All of that was robbed from us. Gone. In one night.

Carlos Olguin, the man who shot my son to death in 2017 at a high school party, was sentenced Monday to seven to nine years in prison. He had seven previous gun charges. Carlos, now 27, was originally charged with first-degree murder. He was allowed to plead guilty to voluntary manslaughter.

The DA responsible for this is Spencer B. Merriweather (Just guess which political party). Hopefully the good people of Charlotte will vote him out. (Not holding my breath)

I haven’t had a reason to go to Charlotte in years and just as well.

The queen city has gone so far downhill.

About the closest I get is the Lake Wylie area to visit a little bit of family and friends still there.

My daughter was shot in Charlotte also. She lived after coding 4 times and losing her spleen. Her immune system lost a key player for life. Apparently she was living w a drug dealer. We just left that area for good.

I don’t miss the place at all.

What little I ever liked or knew of Charlotte is long gone.

Prosecutors LOVE plea deals because it is a conviction, costs little for court prep, little worry about criminal's ethnicity / protected status ... . Carlos Olguin looks to 'skated' on the 'seven previous gun charges' if they were not convictions so that indicates he (probably) had already gotten tender treatment. My heart goes out to this mother and the victim's family & friends, they are in my prayers!

Seems like that was always the case. I grew up on the other side of the state line. Heard enough and watched enough local news growing up.

I used to go to the air museum but I haven’t been there in years.

“My son brought a bag of Marijuana to a high school party, someone stole it and he was standing up for his rights fighting people”

Drugs…..

Why do we always assign blame to something else when drugs are involved?

THAT part of the story never came out.. too many people think smoking pot, dealing pot and growing pot are “No. biggie”. But they are all still criminal acts. Do criminal things win vriminal prizes. Like getting shot, stabbed, beat up or arrested. Hang around circus people expect circus clowns as friends.

“North Charlotte is tough, south Charlotte is good”

I rue the day the partitioning line disappears...and that day is coming.

South Charlotte, here.

I visited Monticello once, and swung by the University of Virginia campus, which was certainly pleasant enough (nice lawn).

Apparently she was living w a drug dealer.

Choices have consequences.


Proverbs 13:20
 
He who walks with wise men will be wise,
But the companion of fools will suffer harm.



1 Corinthians 15:33
 
Do not be deceived: “Bad company corrupts good morals.”

"he (probably) had already gotten tender treatment.'

If we think this person is bad now, just wait until the NEXT time we see him on the streets...

That prosecutor, and and judge, will need answer for every crime and murder that POS commits the rest of his days.. Lets pray those days are are short.. :(

From link --->

...with his past history I believe he may shoot someone again.


Well, it's 50/50.

Drug dealers shoot EACH OTHER all the time.

His time may be up in the future.
Heck, it might even be up when in prison!

Remember:

GOD is not mocked. Whatsoever a man soweth - so shall he reap.

--Galatians 6:7

I hope you keep reminding us what cucks we are for not making more waves for justice for Ashli. We just accept that a White-hating Afirmative Action thug cop murders her and walks. We need to take some action.
