If it isn't about the victim at all, why be in court? If it's not about the victim at all, should she declare him not guilty, with jeopardy attached?

Just for your info everyone involved in this case was black, including the victim.

They are going to keep on until they force Fathers, brothers, sons, and uncles to seek Justice. I hope they include judges and prosecutors like this when they do.

Just read this about an hour ago.
I can’t change any of this but it’s all so disturbing lady justice is a two faced b**ch.

The killer pistol-whipped and shot someone a few years ago.

Then, he was released from prison, and the mother took him back into the house.

Neither of those two things should’ve been allowed to happen.

A month later, he murders her son.

Everyone let this boy down.

My psychic powers must be expanding, as I was able to divine the physiognomy of this judge simply by reading the headline.

UPDATE- The killer ("stepdad") has been rearrested:

NYC stepdad released without bail after allegedly strangling teen stepson is rearrested after Post report

But, more heartbreaking details:

it was revealed he admitted to choking teen Corde Scott for getting bullied at school.

He was angry at the boy for being bullied?

He was still on parole when sources said he had picked up Scott at school on the day of the boy’s death after he was bullied at school, with the two getting into a scuffle in the family apartment.

So, after being bullied at school that day, this teenage boy was sent home where his "stepdad" killed him.

Judges need to be held responsible for their actions, period
