Judge John S. Leonardo sentenced convicted double murderer and Minuteman Shawna Forde to an additional 65 years on the remaining charges she was convicted of in February. She was sentenced to death for the murders of 9-year-old Brisenia Flores and her father Raul on May 30, 2009. Forde got the 65 years on attempted murder, burglary, aggravated assault and robbery charges. All sentences but one are to be served consecutively to the other including the death sentence for the murders. Consecutive means that the total time will be served as opposed to concurrent where time for all offenses is served in one block of time. Here’s the breakdown of Judge Leonardo’s decision. Count 3: Burglary in the first degree. 15 MORE

Cross Posted from LONG ISLAND WINS by PATRICK YOUNG ESQ. I have never supported the death penalty, and I still don’t. The fact that Shawna Forde is, by my reading of the evidence, guilty of planning and ordering the executions of Brisenia and Raul Flores and the attempted killing of Brisenia’s mother, Gina Gonzalez, does not change that opinion.

Killing Brisenia and Raul was not incidental to the home invasion in Arivaca, Arizona. It MORE
