A convicted killer who was sentenced to a decade behind bars for suffocating a Canadian tourist with sand was elected to the city council of a Maine city that inspired Stephen King’s “It.”
Angela Walker was elected as a Bangor councilmember on Tuesday, over two decades after she pleaded guilty to manslaughter charges alongside her brother, Benjamin Humphrey, in the 2002 death of Derek Rogers, the Bangor Daily News reported.
Walker, who’s not affiliated with a political party, was one of three councilmembers elected to serve a three-year term.
She was sponsored by the politically progressive Maine nonprofit organization Food and Medicine alongside the other two winning candidates, the outlet reported.
Walker was convicted in 2003 of manslaughter for Rogers’ death when she still used her maiden name, Humphrey, according to the local publication.
A fight broke out in Old Orchard Beach after Rogers allegedly called Walker a derogatory term for Native American women. He was later discovered brutally beaten and suffocated with sand, the outlet reported.
“That’s my past. I don’t live there anymore and I’m a different person,” Walker said of the conviction, the news site reported.
She also pleaded guilty to perjury and was sentenced to 10 years behind bars, according to reports.

I thought Flash Gordon took out that guy years ago.
Freaky, what idiot voters
will choose these days
In a similar case in New Jersey John Alite, a former Gambino Mob Family enforcer and killer, was appointed to fill a term on the City Council of Englishtown, NJ.
You have a point - the resemblance to Ming the Merciless is uncanny.
My dear departed father (1920-1983) used to listen to that radio show when he was a kid. Ming the Merciless was brought up in our house all the time. LOL
What she did was first degree murder and it is shocking that she was allowed to plea bargain down to manslaughter. She should still be in jail.
The Left is truly nuts.
who’s not affiliated with a political party, yeah ok made sure to emphasize this
OMG!!! THESE VOTERS ARE PURE EVIL.
Name calling is a defense used all the time by certain people. Jurors believe “disrespect “ is just cause
They like her because she’s weird like them. If you’re covered in tats, wear odd mis matched clothing, vape and hate Trump, you’re in.
Romulan?
