FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO): 33 year old Marr Brown was found guilty of attempted murder and criminal recklessness in the December 2018 shooting of 48 year old James Walker.

The Journal-Gazette reports that Brown told the jury he shot Walker because he thought Walker was going to kill him. Walker was shot three times and badly wounded inside of the Kroger on North Clinton near the Coliseum.

Brown was sentenced to 35 years in prison and ordered to pay more than 38-thousand dollars in restitution.

Haha…laugh at these verdicts~!! How’s dude gonna pay $38k in restitution when he is behind bars for 35 years? Maybe out in half time? Walker may be dead by then. He’d be close to his 70’s.

Well James, maybe it has something to do with the prevalence of systemic racism in our justice system. Just as it is in every facet of our society. That’s why the majority of Americans voted in the fraud-free Presidential election to elect a spry modern thinking intellectual. Unity can now be attained for us all behind this giant of a man.
