Angela Corey doesn't give a shit about stand your ground. In this case, no one was killed.

In The State Of Florida - Marissa Alexander Had A Gun Permit, Stood Her Ground, Did Not Shoot Or Kill Anyone and Faces 20 Years In Prison

Florida has a self-defense law and it includes the right to stand your ground. Below are the facts of my concern with the incorrect way the law was applied and ultimately the injustice in my case.

The alleged victim, my husband, under sworn statement in November 2010, admitted he was the aggressor, threatened my life and was so enraged he didn’t know what he would do.

· The alleged victim, my husband, was arrested for domestic violence two times, once for abuse against me. The attack against me was so violent; I ended up in the hospital.

· Prior to my arrest, I told the office I was in fear for my life due to the prior violence against me. I also told the officer there was a domestic injunction in place to protect me against abuse from the alleged victim. This information was written in detail by the officer in my arrest report, but ignored for some unknown reason.

· In July of 2011, a hearing was held, where I along with the alleged victims testified as it relates to the stand your ground law and its immunity from prosecution.

After the hearing, Judge Elizabeth Senterfitt denied my motion, citing that I could have exited the house thru the master bedroom window, front door, and/or sliding glass back door. The law specifically states: No duty to retreat.

· My attorney entered a standing objection on the record to the ruling and we proceeded to trial.

· During that time, Angela Corey, our State Attorney met with the alleged victims. I also along with my attorney met with Angela Corey, John Guy, and then prosecutor Christen Luikart. I justified my actions to them and the truth as I have told it has remained the same.

· Knowing our prior domestic abuse history, Angela Corey was hard pressed for the minimum mandatory, which provisions allow for prosecution to wave those stipulations. I was not guilty, nor did I believe that was fair and just under the circumstances. She also allowed for those same provisions in the State vs. Vonda Parker, same charges different circumstances which did not include self-defense.

She is who one would want prosecuting Zimmerman, and her appointment to it is a signal the state government wants him convicted and jailed, but she is not, repeat not, a good or just person.

The case you reference is a travesty of justice; she should not even have been arrested, let alone prosecuted.

Meanwhile, in Seminole County, one of the connected good ole boys shot his fiance the night before their wedding and didn't even get manslaughter. She was out with the girls and came in at two a.m. She was very short, he was very tall and shot her in the hallway when she was just four feet away.

They had met through Matchsomething.com two years earlier and had lived off her savings, which was nearly gone before the wedding.

Any exposure we can give this state and county is alright be me. It's time the good ole boys leave this state and look for some other groups of suckers.
