It could have been one of my people robbed or shot


I am thrilled to see a court do what they should. It seems everyone just gets a tap on the hand for serious crimes while the more minor "criminals" get tougher sentences... or maybe it is just me!?
Kionne is the step son of one of my BEST employees. You can see my employee in the blue shirt consoling his girlfriend who is sobbing in the second video clip. Kionne had applied for a job for me the week before this incident. He probably would have been hired if his stepdad wasn't already working for us and then you can just imagine it wouldn't have been the Exxon on Forest, The Burger King on Forest, The McDonald's on Forest and the Chevron shooting.
As you see in this video this was AT LEAST his 2nd robbery-- most likely more he just didn't get caught.
THE PLAN AND BOND SENTENCE

Anyhow nearly 6 months later and he has been sentenced to 93 years in prison. He MUST serve AT LEAST 40 no questions asked. I do feel bad for his family because I am sure as a part or loved one you love your child reguardless their poor decisions and this sentence is rather hopeless for any "future" he could have had, and the odds of his mom for instance every seeing him again outside of behind bars are basically unrealistic since at THE EARLIEST he would be 60 years old when released, making her what probably in her 80s?
