Sign my petition for Jennifer
Jennifer Mee gained notoriety at the age of fifteen after suffering from an incurable case of the hiccups. At nineteen she was convicted of first degree murder after participating in a fatal robbery.
Under Florida law, everyone who participated in a fatal robbery is equally guilty of murder, regardless of their role in the crime.
My point of view is that if the law says that about robberies, then why aren’t drunk drivers who kill someone charged with first degree murder because they have also killed someone in the process of committing a crime? That’s driving under the influence.
Florida lawmakers should explain to their people how their community will benefit from locking people up and scrapping the key approach.
In the case of Jennifer Mee, she was found guilty of first degree murder and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole, so what horrible crime did she commit?
Murdered someone in cold blood?
Well here are some facts as I understand them;
Jennifer made an appointment with a young man through Facebook, but she did not have a romance in mind but a robbery.
The plan was to rob the young man with the help of his two male companions, but during the assault one of Jennifer’s friends shot the victim. I don’t know where Jennifer was when all this happened.
It was never Jennifer’s intention for the victim to be shot (according to Jennifer) and she claims she didn’t even know one of her friends had a firearm in her presence.
I don’t know what you think of Jennifer, but whatever it is, would you feel the same way if she was one of your relatives?
My opinion is that Florida has changed the meaning of the word murder for whatever reason. I always thought that the murder was an intentional act and that Jennifer’s only intention was to steal the victim from her.
As far as I know, the murder was not even discussed.
The other important point is life in prison without parole sentences.
This may be the only option for some, but not for most.
In Jennifer’s case, her attorney gave her a 3-5% chance of being released, but I can’t figure out how she came to that conclusion.
Because there is a leniency option for Jennifer subject to certain criteria and one of them is that at least ten years must have passed since her adjudication. She’s been in since she was 19 and now she’s 28, so she has little time left before she turns ten.
I have written to several US politicians about all this, but none have responded. GO FIGURE!
You can watch Jennifer Mee on YouTube and make up your own mind. There are some cruel comments posted, but people like that have absolutely no empathy for other human beings.
They get a perverse sense of pleasure from making fun of other people’s mistakes.
