229. I have not seen a worse case of deliberate disinformation since Crystal Mangum.

This is frankly shameful. The truth as explicitly described in court documents is well known to all, but the lies better fit the prevailing doctrine.

Marissa Alexander:
Was not in fear for her life or safety.
Let herself into Gray's house.
Stayed there all night waiting for Gray to return home the following morning with his kids.
Left the house after an argument, retrieved her gun from her car, walked back in and shot at them - not a warning shot but at eye level. His son testified "I thought I was fixin' to die".
Gray and the kids fled the house (if anyone had a Stand Your Ground basis for self defense it was him) and called 911.
After a seven hour standoff with the cops, she was arrested. The police found that none of the evidence at the scene corroborated her story.
After being released from jail she violated a court order to meet Gray to coach him on his testimony.
After he gave his deposition, and while out on bail, she again violated the court order, went to Gray's new house and attacked him. Because Gray was injured, she was again arrested and plead no contest to domestic violence.

So that's Aggravated Assault with Actual Discharge of a Firearm, domestic assault, witness tampering, violating a court order, child endangerment, perjury and attempted murder.
20 years sounds about right.

Attempts to consider her a hero frankly make me sick. None of her apologists have any standing to lecture anyone about domestic violence. They don't really want an end to violence, they just want to pick the winner.
