Seandell Jackson

Seandell Jackson was convicted of murdering Nathan Potter who was a student at University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. He had attempted to rob him, however Nathan was not carrying any cash and was merely traveling from one location to another at the time of his death. There is nothing special about Seandell, other than he is the poster child for why prisons exist, and that he and his family are responsible for the choices he made that day.

When he was sentenced for first-degree intentional homicide and attempted robbery, he was sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole, he screamed obscenities, and had to be tackled and pepper sprayed. He was not alone in his outbursts, his family yelled out as well: "I hate you! I hate you all!", "I hate all of you!", "God's the judge" . Funny to bring God into things when your family member has committed which God forbids. Perhaps they were absent on the Sunday that was being taught.

It's easy to make this about racism, and to a point it IS, but it's more profound than that. Nothing is black and white, no pun intended. It's unbelievably narcissistic. 

The Porters were not surprised at the outburst as Seandell had behaved badly in court, laughing at them, giving them the finger, etc. Not only did he have no remorse, he  mocked the family of the dead man, which is so much worse then simply not having regret. Prisons were created for exactly this type of person and his family. They simply do not care that they have no rights to take things from others. Their parents and family members will defend them and justify their bad actions from now until the end of time. At some point, he was an innocent child, until he discovered he could do whatever he wanted to do, and suffer no consequences.

Nathan Porter's younger siblings (13 and 11) were terrified in court he would attempt to kill them as well during the sentencing. Thank God he's not eligible for parole so they won't have to see him again. Hopefully the world will forget his name and the sad fact that he is still breathing. The fault of this murder rests on Seandell and the family members who taught him that no matter what he does, there should never be consequences.

You can find the Facebook tribute to Nathan here. I was unable to find anything set up in his name (law change, foundation etc.) if you are aware of something, let me know and I'd be happy to add it.

Here's the next Seandell. Even when the woman confronts her, she doesn't tell her it's wrong to take the car but advises her that she's leaving her fingerprints on the keys! We sadly are seeing an entire generation of children being groomed for criminality. You can view this video here.

The Life and Times of Veronic Staley

Vernonica Staley was recently sentenced to life for the murder of Aljosa (Al) Memovic. She was thirty four years old at the time of the murder and was an aspiring singer. They had dated for some time, but in the previous year and half their relationship had deteriorated considerably. Friends had in fact warned Al to not meet up with Veronica. She had set up the telling him she had some of things to return and offered up “Dessert” after the lunch, according to the Houston Chronicle. While not much is known exactly about the length or nature of their relationship, relatives testified that Staley had deep mental issues after trauma she suffered in childhood. The prosecutors acknowledged she had issues, but said they were not sufficient enough to impact her sentencing. This is as it should be. There are literally millions of people living in the United States who have had childhoods filled with unimaginable pain and suffering who do not go on to kill others or live a life of cr

Sterling Kohen & Questions

Sterling Kohen was a three month and thirty day old baby. At his murder trial, the prosecutor used the word malicious many times and to be honest, it's the perfect word. He was born healthy and over the course of his very short life he remained so and gained weight and grew. At some unknown point and for reasons that are not particularly clear, she began to resent his intrustion on the life she had shared with her older daughter Nala and he boyfriend Zach. He was found in a house that contained everything he needed to survive – formula, bottles, diapers, diaper rash cream, wipes, and clean clothing and blankets. It was not as if they could not afford to care for him. The father believed he was not his child and ignored him for the most part, which no doubt played a part in his mother's rejection. Both parents were abusing meth at the time of the murder. The father was gainfully employed and provided for the physical needs of the child. At the Zach's trial, DN
