The case was prosecuted by Assistant State’s Attorney John T. Gibbons and Assistant State’s Attorney Rita M. Gara.

  1. It’s more then obvious: this woman was making a plea for help !

    If not, someone would have been shot or shot and killed !

    Nice how the charges were itemized for each count.

    Rioters go free after murder, rape , arson and far more
    Devastating acts.

    (Democraps).

    Her weapon’s were taken .

    i’m possitive you fined her up the annal.

    And a year of jail?

    Wow some honorable judge.

    So where would you find one.
    She was in need of mental help not jail.
