Minuteman Shawna Forde given max of 65 on remaining charges

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

Another frivolous complaint filed by Laine Lawless - Judge John S. Leonardo targeted

Wackadoodle supporters of convicted double murderer Shawna Forde have filed another frivolous complaint, this time with the Commission on Judicial Conduct against Pima County Superior Court Judge John S. Leonardo. Read it for yourself people. The loons need to be locked up in a rubber room for their own protection. Forde was convicted last month of the barbaric double murders of 9 year old Brisenia Flores and her father Raul, and the attempted murder of the wife and mother Gina Marie Gonzalez. Here’s the ludicrous allegations put forth by the two morons, who incidentally, had to “swear under penalty of perjury, that the forgoing information and the allegations contained in the attached complaint are true”. I wonder if the Arizona Judicial Committee will MORE

Minuteman Shawna Forde Inmate #260830

It didn’t take Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik long to rid himself of convicted double murderer and Minuteman Shawna Forde, turning her over to the custody of the Arizona Department of Corrections to begin serving her sentence for the murders of Brisenia Flores and her father Raul Flores. The newest addition to Arizona’s Death Row at ASPC-PERRYVILLE, we can only hope that Inmate #260830 see’s the face of her victims every second of every day for the rest of her natural life or until the sentence imposed is carried out, something that most of us will not be around for if and when it occurs. UP NEXT – JASON EUGENE BUSH The shooter, Jason Eugene “Gunny” Bush is scheduled for MORE

The Year in Hate & Extremism, 2010 - ALIPAC makes the list

The Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) is out with their new Year in Hate and Extremism 2010 review and it’s an eyeopener for most although not so much for those of us that follow these nativist hate groups. It ought to make William Gheen, President of the nativist extremist group Americans for Legal Immigration (ALIPAC) proud that he made the top of the list for groups in North Carolina alongside his buddies from NC FIRE. And we’d put the question out to all of his donors, past, present and future, “Do you really want your names associated with a recognized hate group?” Something to think about as Mr. Gheen is frantically trying to reach his fundraising goal with the days MORE

From Border Militia Leader to Convicted Murderer: Shawna Forde’s Misguided Aspirations

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. But I will try to be objective in looking at why the jury sentenced her to death. Putting myself in the place of a juror and seeing the evidence presented to the jury, it would be difficult to resist giving Forde the maximum penalty allowed by law. Killing Brisenia and Raul was not incidental to the home invasion in Arivaca, Arizona. It MORE

Juror in Shawna Forde murder case describes the ordeal [UPDATED]

Angie Thomas, 31, a student at IT Tech, mother of two and juror #8 on the panel that convicted Minuteman Shawna Forde of the deaths of 9 year old Brisenia Flores and her father Raul, came out before the media yesterday and spoke of the deliberations and the difficulty she and the other jurors experienced listening to the testimony at trial. Thomas told media about waking up on the second morning of the trial and not wanting to step foot back into the courtroom after hearing the testimony of Gina Gonzalez who described the night that Shawna Forde, Jason Bush and Albert Gaxiola invaded their Arivaca home posing as law enforcement officers. But return she did, doing her duty and MORE

Death Penalty for Minuteman Shawna Forde

The Pima County jury hearing the case of convicted double murderer and Minuteman Shawna Forde have unanimously agreed that Forde should be put to death for the barbaric murders of 9 year old Brisenia Flores and her father Raul. The verdict was returned shortly before noon in the courtroom of the Honorable Judge John S. Leonardo who has presided over the case. Judge Leonardo immediately announced the death sentence and ordered sentencing on the other 6 charges she was convicted on to be set for April 25. Forde will become the third woman on Arizona’s death row. Had jurors not come to a consensus on the death sentence, Judge Leonardo would have had the discretion to sentence Forde to natural MORE

Cycle of Fences, a mini documentary by Belgian Filmmaker Sebastien Wielemans is available for public viewing after being removed from YOUTUBE for copyright violations by Laine Lawless and her crew at JusticeforShawnaForde.com In October 2008, Wielmans met Minuteman Shawna Forde in the desert around Tucson Arizona and shot a couple of hours of video, some of which became this film. Efforts to obtain more was interrupted by her arrest for the murders of 9 year old Brisenia Flore and her father Raul, a double murder she was convicted of on February 14, 2011. Weilmans provided copies of his film to the parties involved, and CJSF illegally ripped, edited and posted their version on Youtube and the website justiceforshawnaforde, to make MORE

Convicted murderer Shawna Forde Fights Back - "I'm Innocent, Now Pay Me" [UPDATED]

Convicted double murderer and Minuteman Shawna Forde didn’t have the guts to take the stand and tell her side of the story during her double murder trial, nor did she avail herself of the opportunity to show some remorse and ask the jury for leniency, but according to her whacked out supporters, Forde is suddenly fighting back. The website, justiceforshawnaforde.com claims that despite being held incommunicado, Forde contacted supporters to blow more smoke up their asses and continue to maintain her innocence. According to the statement; In an 11th hour move, Shawna Forde, who has been held incommunicado by the jail, called her supporters and insisted that she was misquoted in a hasty 10 minute interview she gave to a MORE

Convicted double murderer Shawna Fordes fate is in the hands of the jurors now

Finally, closing arguments are over and all that remains is the decision of 12 of her “peers” whether convicted double murderer and Minuteman Shawna Forde goes to Arizona’s death row or Judge John S.

Thorpe finally conceded MORE
