    Fact = Some Family member or close friend will say “Keep Your Head Up Guys and Don’t worry about the haters”

    Subtotal = Repeat Offending upon release from Westgate

    Total = Broken Record

      Why is it in todays Royal Gazette this lawyer is trying to give a convicted killer less time,why is he even defending this guy,it really is a disgusting story and shame on these damn lawyers doing stupid sh*t like this.Rhiana and her family deserve better justice then this he got 35 years before parole and the lawyer is trying to make it 25 this guy should never see freedom ever! For what he done ,how that lawyer sleeps at night is beyond me.Trying to get a guy that did something so violent less time are these people out of their minds or what.This is also a problem of why so much violence in bda so many people are standing up for people that dont deserve it MAKES ME SICK! Some people deserve second chances but not for crimes of this nature it is UNACCEPTABLE
