NEW: Indianapolis mother walks free after admitting to smothering her 2-month-old baby to death between two couch cushions while high on meth. Judge Mark Stoner found Dacia Lacey not guilty of neglect resulting in death. Lacey confessed that she wanted her daughter to stop crying and just be quiet so she could get some sleep. The mother, who was high on meth, smothered her daughter in the couch cushions. Judge Stoner said that prosecutors didn’t do enough to prove she intentionally harmed her baby. Lacey was facing 20 to 40 years in prison. She now walks free.
@CollinRugg Didn’t do enough to prove? How about the fact that she’s high on meth with a child enough?
@CollinRugg Mother: I didn’t kill my daughter. I was just high on meth…that’s all. Judge: no problem, not guilty 😲
This really puts things into perspective: "With the 165 Billion we gave to Ukraine, we could have built six border walls to stop illegal immigrants from pouring across our southern border. Could have fixed Flint's water system 215 times over easily. I like this one. Could have given every homeless vet $2 million. Holy shit. Could have given 50 million to every family impacted by the Maui wildfires. And they got $700. They got $700 each. We got to get our priorities straight, buddy."
@CollinRugg This is beyond ridiculous. If this woman was white she would’ve got life in prison. There’s no justification for this leniency. Also, the judge’s last name is “Stoner”? This case is nonsense. The judge should be legally removed from the bench. He’s clearly unfit to serve.
@CollinRugg On March 6, 1981, Marianne Bachmeier shot and killed the man who raped and murdered her 7-year-old daughter In the courtroom, in front of the judge. This is a reenactment from a movie
@CollinRugg The judicial system in America is broken. Murderers are walking out free, while President Trump and Daniel Perry are facing years in jail for caring about the American people.
@CollinRugg There aren’t adequate words to describe this abomination of justice. Society can not continue to function like this.
