who is "we"?

Quote From: jenloves

um thanks hun, but we DO think.. we think about how scared we are. we think about protecting our family who have been threatened.. we think about trying to solve a problem with a person we thought we knew. and we think about how much trouble we are going to be in when our parents see their car is wrecked.  

we think about slamming on the breaks when someone jumps infront of our car. think about what to say on tv to avoid saying we thought ... or knew it was him.. but letting everyone know it was and accident.  and we think about going home.. to a safe place because we dont know what will happen next, and because we do know, that no adult will believe that some teenager can be innocent.. because the world is evil, and we are evil, and everything in it is evil right? so thanks that you know she made a mistake. but its not because she didnt think. she did think. it just didnt help her know what to do.... God bless 

Firstly,  who are you and what and whom are you referring to when you say We?  

  

Also, what do you mean when you say at the end of your post that she "didn't help her know what to do"? I would say covering up the crime of what ever she may have hit, at a hugely excellerated speed, (just look at the damage to the front windshield), and sneaking back into her own home in the dead of night, after she admittedly stole her parents car, to go visit or even if you think she went to reason with, or deal with a young man whom she described as "abusive" makes you wonder just how much power or control she thought she had, or hoped to get for herself. This speaks volumes towards premeditation! 

 

It would seem that Brandi's parents don't have a problem thinking up excuses for her behavior; the theft, the death of a well loved young man, the deceit and crime of covering up another crime makes it a legal conspiracy (by the way), and the expectation that she was soooo special that she only needed to be punished, or served up to the justice system for 120 days. It's laughable if it's not tragic, but apparently that seemed like a fair deal to her and her parents.  

  

Luckily for the public, who may be confronting this young woman again at some point in the future when she is released, because she still hasn't learned the grave damage of her own actions the justice system knew better. Her second, and (presumabley first)  attorney thought otherwise.  

  

You might ask yourself why in the world their own attorney pleaded out a squeaky clean and attractive young white girl from middle America.  They surely had serious reasons for doing so.  

  

You might also remember..............that despite her family's excuse that her first attorney was reassigned to a "new" case and couldn't defend her some people get it. Most people in America know full well, that when you hire an attorney, he is YOURS. They admitted completely that her first attorney was Not a public defense attorney and subject to assignment from the judge as they tried to claim.....do they really think no one knows that is simply Not true in our judicial system?? You can just smell her parents pattern of saying it's all someone else's fault honey. Geezz! Have you asked yourself Why that first attorney bailed out on this young girl? How dare her parents seek a break for her by circumventing her own, and their own chosen attorney's confession and plea? And what Dr. Phil was thinking I can't quite imagine!!! 

  

Ask yourself why any attorney who gets paid for the length of time they are on a case, and this one could have taken quite some time to prove, or disprove with such adamant parents and defendant gave all that up just to "trick" the young girl and insert at the last minute some "guilty" language that she just signed without ever reading it if we're to believe her statements. Why would we believe these same parents who are so virulently fighting to get their daughter out of jail after she's confessed, would have failed to read very c-a-r-e-f-u-l-l-y everything she signed in connection with her plea.   It just doesn't fly, and neither does her account of what took place that night.  

  

Lastly, I can't let it go without saying this: Since when do young girls who are terrified of being killed and having their little brother killed by such abusive boyfriends go hunt them down in the night to return things to them, with a stolen car no less???Scared of him, Nah, I don't think so! 

  

Brandi was young and will still be young when she finishes serving her term in jail, but I doubt very much that she will have learned anything very useful until and unless her parents learn it first. And that, is a double tragedy here to me.
