FYI...In gangs, the Tear Drop tattoo woren by this woman has a symbolic mean that the wearer has killed someone.
Put two and two together: handgun in car and tear drop tattoo = further investigation into possible homicides involving this individual. I know Mike Lewis is hip to the scene, his men will certainly be on it
So, she wasn't supposed to have a gun but somehow this idiot was on the street to murder someone else on January 30 16. She should have been in jail. What's wrong with this system!?
She was sentenced to life plus 20 years today for murdering my friend. Justice has been served
