White Florida Woman Sentenced to 25 Years for Killing Nigerian Neighbor Through Door
Susan Lorincz, a white Florida woman, has been sentenced to 25 years in prison for fatally shooting her Black Nigerian neighbor, Ajike “AJ” Owens, through a closed door in June 2023.
Lorincz was found guilty of manslaughter in August. The shooting occurred after a dispute over children playing near her home in Ocala, Florida. Owens, a 35-year-old mother of four, was unarmed and knocking on Lorincz’s door when she was shot.
Judge Robert Hodges called the shooting unnecessary, noting Lorincz was behind a locked door and had already called 911. Instead of remaining safe, she retrieved a gun and fired.
Neighbors accused Lorincz of frequently harassing local children and using racial slurs, which she denied. Owens’ family expressed their lasting grief, with her mother stating, “Our pain and suffering will last a lifetime.”
Though the maximum sentence was 30 years, the court deemed 25 years appropriate for the crime.
Nigerian pastor and overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, addresses and reacts to the current happenings of the country regarding the kidnapping and the abductions.
The pastor urges the government on steps they can take to solve and help the people of the country. “The Nigerian government has a clear and urgent duty to protect these Middle Belt communities, who have carried the weight of violence for far too long.”
“Rather than play the ostrich and cover up clear terrorism as mere farmer-herder clashes, the Nigerian state has a responsibility to invade the camps of armed marauders who hide under the cloak of herdsmen of whatever ethnicity, and who invade defenceless communities and gleefully massacre unarmed men, women and children.”
US President Donald Trump criticizes the Nigeria government once again after the increase of insecurity over the past few days. The president stated that the government is failing to protect Christian communities from the attacks going on.
“Nigeria is a disgrace. The whole thing is a disgrace,” Trump said. “They’re killing people by the thousands. It’s a genocide, and I’m really angry about it. And we pay, you know, we give a lot of subsidies to Nigeria. We’re going to end up stopping.”
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar speaks out against the rising insecurity in the country. He urged the government to take action and claimed that it is not too late to declare a state of emergency.
He reacted after another news of abduction of students was announced on the 21st of November.
“How many more lives must be shattered before decisive action is taken? It is not too late for the government to finally declare a state of emergency on insecurity and confront this menace with the urgency it deserves.”
