Guilty, Guilty, Guilty!
Daniel Holtzclaw will likely spend the rest of his life in jail:
After listening to several weeks of testimony and four days of deliberating, a jury has found a former Oklahoma City police officer accused of sex crimes guilty on 18 counts.This is not what I expect from an all white jury in Oklahoma.
Daniel Holtzclaw is accused of sexually assaulting 13 women while on duty as an Oklahoma City police officer.
In August 2014, the state charged Holtzclaw with 36 felony counts of rape, sexual battery, indecent exposure and forcible oral sodomy after the 13 women came forward, claiming the officer assaulted them while they were in custody or inside his police car.
In all, the jury heard 13 accusers’ stories of assault.
………
After four days of deliberating, the jury found Holtzclaw guilty on 18 counts.
They recommend he be sentenced to a total of 263 years.
Good for the jurors and the prosecutors.
5 Years ago, they probably would not even have charged the guy.
We chan thank Black Lives Matter for this change in attitude.
