Two Florida Teens Got Served Hate Crime Charges After Beat Down!



The Matthew Shepard and James Byrd act is the law that was signed by President Barack Obama sometime ago. That law includes stricter punishment if the prosecutor can determine a criminal act upon a victim was out of spite because of their race, sexuality, gender, religion, disabliity and economic standings.

Two young Orlando teens are going to find out that this charge could land them federal time out.

These two are being charged as adults. WFTV has reported that a 14 year old and his 16 year old brother are being held in the Orange County kiddie lock up awaiting charges of felonious assault and criminal battery.
Deandre and Dennis Florence
DeAndre and Dennis Florence got sent to kiddie lock up awaiting state charges that could carry 20 in the iron college.

They could be serving time in the iron college or federal time out if the judge decides to hit them with the gavel.

These two were filmed along with others beating down a 32 year old man. The victim claims that he was given the five finger roll because he was gay.

As you see in the video that the media put out, the person who film this didn't help the victim. He wanted to get some street cred on social networks WorldStar, Vine, Snapchat or YouTube.

But Orlando Police and the Orange County Sheriff are going to revoke that filmmaker's cred.

They want him and everyone in that video brought down for questioning.

Now you know that racial arsonist Colin Flaherty will certainly log this in his daily count of random Black teen mob violence. The fool is obsessed with it.

Our pesky gadfly of all things Black crime, FRED101 will leave us a comment. Assured that he'll put some link from a conservative shithole (i.e. The Throwup Pundit, AngryWhiteBitch, The Daily Nothing, or WhiteFolksComplainAlot).

Some of the people who got a link through the conservative Craigslist will obviously say that these teens could have been Trayvon or even Obama's son.

You know the usual word vomit. Now again, crime is colorless unless the junk food media runs the scary Black mugshots. Obviously it didn't take WFTV long to obtain these images.

These two would normally be blotted out. But due to the severity of these charges, the county lockup went ahead and put their images out on the streets.

Wondering if Charles C. Johnson could insinuate these two knowing Trayvon Martin from a friend of a friend?

Hell, they all look like Trayvon says the racist right!

It's Not A Good Holiday For Davion Only!

Davion Henry (Only) is back in foster care after he got into a confrontation with his adoptive family.

The teen who gain national attention for being the kid no one wanted to adopt is back in the news.

Apparently he's no longer allowed in the home of his adoptive family. Just two weeks ago, that boy and his adoptive family were on That Guy Who Helped Obama Win's program.

All things ain't so rosy in household. An altercation at the home of his potential family in Ohio turned him back to the Florida Department of Family Services.

And to make this worse, Davion Henry (Only) dropped everything. He killed off the social networking websites. He will no longer hold conversations with the junk food media and he's probably in a state of despair.

Some people who previously adopted him said that he had a huge temper. Apparently this temper built up after being shunned by his original family and probably molested as a child.

Before this incident, we here at Journal de la Reyna were following this controversy. Thousands of Americans were hoping to adopt the young man.

On paper, this was the book-definition perfect family for him. The father was a pastor who had worked with troubled kids. They knew about Davion's background and his issues.

The Tampa Bay Times reports that Davion came back to Florida just long enough to pack a small suitcase.

Then he returned to Ohio, where his prospective parents signed him up to play football — something he had always wanted to do.

"I got baptized!" he wrote April 20, from his new phone, on his new Facebook page.

The adoption could take place in 90 days, said Terri Durdaller, whose agency, Eckerd, oversees Tampa Bay's foster children. That would have meant that Davion could be adopted this month.

Instead, he is back in Pinellas County, at a therapeutic foster home, upset and embarrassed, unwilling to talk.

"There was an incident in Ohio," said Eckerd's director, Lorita Shirley. At one point, she said, things got physical between Davion and another child in the house, and with the dad. The family wanted him out.

On May 30, Davion's case manager flew to Ohio and brought him back to Florida.

"This has been a major setback for him," Shirley said. "Our goal now is to get him treatment."

Ex-Cop Murders A Movie-Goer Over A Phone!

Florida law enforcement investigate a fatal shooting at a movie theater. The suspect is an ex-cop.

Down in the state where everyone is entitled to "stand their ground", a retired cop gets into a heated argument with a man and his wife over their use of a cell phone while in the playing of a movie.

The retired cop decides that he had to teach this disrespectful punk a lesson. He pulls out his pistol and fires a few slugs in the chest of the man.

Curtis Reeves, Jr. the suspect.
The man gets a slug in his chest, walks a few feet and collapse.

A off-duty cop and a few medical nurse were watching the event go on. They disarm the ex-cop and tend to the man with a slug in his chest.

As the law enforcement was coming, the wife of the man who got a slug in chest was injured by an apparent  fragment. She knew that her man is on his last breath. He took one to the chest, you're chances were very slim if the bullet hit internal organs.

As they load the man onto the helicopter for a fast track to the nearest Tampa hospital, he would later die upon arrival.

Somehow I guess the ex-cop wasn't aware that the man was on the phone with his daughter. Cause all the texting and phone chatting happened because I guess there was an emergency at home. The ex-cop didn't know that one, did he?

Curtis Reeves, Jr. age 71 is a retired police captain who worked in the tactical response unit is being held on a $2 million get outta free card. He is being charged with SECOND DEGREE smokeout!

The victims were Chad and Nichole Oulson. Chad was killed by a .380 pistol. Nichole was injured by the fragments of the bullet.
Chad and Nichole Oulson were shot by a deranged man. The man confronted the family over their use of a cell phone. The shooter is a former cop who has years of experience in dissolving conflicts.

Passo County sheriff in Florida and the city of Wesley Chapel are handling the investigation.

The movie was Lone Survival.

Ironic.

Will this ex-cop claim that he thought the Oulsons on their phone were acting "suspiciously"?

After all he could have solved the problem by getting management or asking for a refund!

BUT SINCE FLORIDA IS THE WILD WEST OF GUN CRIMES AND UTTER STUPIDITY, HE DIDN'T NEED NO STUPID MANAGEMENT! HE HAD A GUN!

Developments will follow here on Journal de la Reyna.

Inmates Forged Way Out Of The Iron College!

Joseph Jenkins was mistakenly released September 27.
Joseph Jenkins was serving life in the iron college but managed to get early parole! Of course, on forged doucments.

Governor Rick Scott, the Republican is making it his number one priority to capture two inmates who managed to forged their way out of the iron college. Two inmates who were serving life in the iron college found a way to get out and they used the judge who proceeded over the Casey Anthony trial.

It's funny that in the digital age, we the American taxpayer give inmates in the iron college access to computers! If I wasn't such a humanitarian, I would never allow them access to a computer, ever!

Of course, it's in Florida. So obviously, we haven't overcome the verdict. So I am guessing that the racist right will somehow tie this to President Barack Obama, Trayvon Martin or every civil rights leader.

Obviously since these are Black criminals, they'll be talk about crime statistics, complaints of liberal bias, or the "OBAMA'S SONS" comment.

CNN reports Charles Walker and Joseph Jenkins have been free for some time, though this fact didn't become public knowledge until this week. Now, Florida authorities are not only looking for the two men, but they also are insisting they aren't to blame -- even if others dropped the ball or were fooled in a big, big way.

"We've had a system failure that resulted in two individuals being erroneously released," Orange County, Florida, Sheriff Jerry Demings said. "...This is very frustrating for all of us who work in the system."

Charles Walker was released October 8.
Charles Walker, the other inmate who got early release on forged documents.
The two fugitives, both 34, didn't need a Hollywood-style jailbreak or even a "Get Out Of Jail Free" card to spring themselves out of the Franklin Correctional Institution. Instead they used forged documents indicating their life sentences had been modified and they could leave.

The legal-looking documents contained bogus reproductions of several key players' signatures, including those of the Orlando-area state attorney or the assistant state attorney and Judge Belvin Perry. They bore the seal of the Orange County clerk of court's office.

The documents were processed by the state Department of Corrections and the men were released. Processing the paper work is more akin to data entry than high-level analysis or approval, noted veteran Florida criminal defense attorney Mark O'Mara.

"However it was done, it was well-planned and they know the system well enough to place it," said O'Mara, a CNN contributor known for representing George Zimmerman.

As well as those behind the convicts' release might have executed their scheme, some think others in authority could have done better, but the agencies involved are defending their actions.

The orders to release Walker and Jenkins looked legitimate, said Ninth Circuit State Attorney Jeffrey L. Ashton.

The county clerk of court's office didn't do anything wrong, spokeswoman Leesa Branbridge said. It acts "like a post office," Bainbridge said, "Our role is to take orders and send them to the appropriate agency."

That last agency, the state Department of Corrections, is throwing up its hands as well.

The court passed along documentation indicating the two murderers' sentences had been changed, and "it's not our job to question what the court does," said Department of Corrections spokeswoman Misty Cash.

"The fault does not lie on us. No one is getting in trouble here for what happened," she said.

Whoever is to blame, the price is being paid. Law enforcement officials are working overtime to try to find Walker and Jenkins, with a reward of $10,000 apiece being offered for information leading to their capture.

The relatives of the men's victims are angry, scared and want an explanation.

And while Demings said Friday he didn't know of any similar premature releases of inmates, O'Mara said that given how smoothly this plan worked, how readily available court documents are in Florida, and how seemingly simple it was to pull off, it would be naive to think this hasn't happened before, freeing other convicts well before their time was served.

"I doubt it happens very much, because this is very unusual," said O'Mara. "But this could have gone for 10 years or more."

Sentenced to life without parole, then set free

In September 1998, Joseph I. Jenkins killed Roscoe Pugh Jr. during a home-invasion robbery attempt.
Six months later, Cedric Slater was gunned down on an Orlando street corner -- shot dead, a jury determined, by Charles B. Walker.

Both killers were convicted and sentenced to life behind bars without the possibility of parole within two years of their crime. While it's not known if they knew each other, they were at the same prison in North Carrabelle, in Florida's Panhandle.

Jenkins left there on September 27, and Walker left on October 8, according to authorities. They had motions indicating the sentences had been reduced, as well as court orders granting the request. Investigators later discovered these documents were forged.

Asked how someone might replicate the documents, O'Mara noted that court filings in Florida cases are available online, so they might be mimicked by "anybody with a little common sense," access to a word processing tool and the gall to replicate signatures seen on those records.

There might have been a screw-up, but Cash said there is no "cover-up" at the Department of Corrections.

That agency's chief, Michael Crews, has promised a "vigorous and thorough review" to make sure others weren't also wrongly freed.

"This will be a lesson learned for all involved. We may now look more closely at what the court sends," Cash said. "Our system is being accused, and people are being led to believe that the DOC let these guys walk out the front door, and that's just not the case."

There's good reason to question, and change, the system, O'Mara said. Whereas victims are notified before a defendant's pretrial release, there's no such notice -- even to prosecutors -- before a convict walks free, he pointed out.

In fact, the first that prosecutors got wind of what happened was after they were contacted by a member of Walker's family, Ashton said.

An October 8 letter from the Department of Corrections to Slater's mother, Evangelina Kearse, notified her a "court order and amended sentence caused (Walker's) sentence to expire."

"Please be aware that recent actions causing the release of this offender are beyond our control.

Nevertheless, we apologize for the delay in this message," it said.

It doesn't have to be this way, O'Mara said. "Let not only the victim's family know well ahead of time, then send it to the state's attorney," he said, surmising prosecutors as well as victims won't let mistakes by so easily. "...That's an easy fix."

Not the first case, perhaps not the last

One irony is that Florida authorities were completely ignorant that such ruses can work.

On October 7, charging documents were filed against another inmate, Jeffrey Forbes, for allegedly trying a similar scheme in 2011.

Forbes is accused of forgery and attempted escape after a police detective who initially helped convict the man discovered he was scheduled to be released despite being sentenced to life in prison for the attempted first-degree murder of a law enforcement officer, according to Ashton's statement.

The investigation revealed that someone had forged Ashton's name on a bogus court order reducing the sentence and a circuit court judge's name on the order reducing Forbes' life sentence, the statement said.

Nonetheless, Walker was freed thanks to his own forged documents the very next day -- October 8.

Both he and Jenkins appeared to play by the rules afterward. They both went to the Orange County jail to register as felons -- Jenkins on September 30, Walker on October 11 -- an audacious "and really smart move" by both men, because it bought them time before authorities were tipped off anything was awry, O'Mara said.

While their releases may have initially seemed legitimate and innocuous, by Friday evening, the two convicts had been classified as escapees.

Demings, the Orange County sheriff, said both are considered "dangerous individuals" and -- by virtue of some "legitimate spottings" -- are thought to be in the Orlando area.

One of the officials whose signature was forged said he wouldn't be surprised if something like this happens again. It may not work exactly the same way, but it would be unwise to assume criminals won't try whatever they can to get out of prison, said Judge Perry.

"People, particularly people with criminal minds, come up with ingenious ways to beat the system," Perry said. "They have nothing but time on their hands to think of things."

"Hiccup Girl" Gets Life In The Iron College!

Life in the iron college.

Jennifer Mee's rise and fall.

The Pinellas County Court has determined that it's a wrap for the former internet celebrity who had a case of uncontrollable hiccups.

The 22-year old woman was found guilty in the murder of Shannon Griffin. She was a contributor to the death of the young man after she asked him to meet him at the dope spot.
Shit's real, Jennifer Mee is guilty of murder.
Mee, her former boyfriend Lamont Newton and Laron Raiford were found responsible for the death.

Raiford was sent to the iron college for the rest of his life. He was sentenced a few weeks ago. He will serves it with no chance of parole.

Mee is the second and most high profile member of the group to be sentenced to the iron college for life with no chance at parole.
Shannon Griffin's family can rest easy knowing that two murderers are off the streets.
Of course, she'll have the right to appeal the sentence. But as of today and probably for the rest of her life, it's bars. Nothing but bars.

A sad chapter to an internet celebrity.

Looks like Lionel Tate and Jennifer Mee are the unfortunate cases of celebrity in the wrong way.

While Casey Anthony and George Zimmerman count their pathetic blessings of being free, Mr. Tate and Ms. Mee are the unfortunate cases.

Lionel Tate was sentenced to life in the iron college after he was convicted of murdering a little girl. After six years in juvenile lock up, the U.S. District Court overturned the conviction and freed him. But under pretenses he was to stay out of trouble. But after two years out, he ended up causing himself to go back. He and a friend were involved in a robbery of a pizza driver. He ended up getting 30 years on top of life in the iron college.

Mee's celebrity had her on the news agitators and she had an opportunity to meet celebrities such as country star Keith Urban. Mee's problems began when she dated her boyfriend Newton, the local dope boy. She wanted to be his "ride or die" chick. Instead of telling the law what happened, she ended up trying to finger the other guy and said the "I don't know nothing" excuse.
Raiford and Mee got life in the iron college. Newton is going to trial.
Mee's "gangsta" attitude made the court determine she had no remorse for Shannon Griffin and she tried to use her celebrity to get a lighter sentence. The 15 year sentence fell through and she went ahead and gamble her life in the hands of a jury.

It is what it is.

We here at Journal de la Reyna believe that justice was served in this situation and hope that Mee will finally realized that her actions paved the way for her sentence to the iron college.

Deal Rejected For "Hiccup Girl"! The Trial On!

Murder trial for Jennifer Mee, the former internet celebrity.

The deal to get out of the iron college after 15 years is rejected by the court. I guess its jury selection for Jennifer Mee, the 22-year old woman who is accused in the murder of Shannon Griffin. I guess she's going to gamble on the trial that may send her to the iron college for the rest of her life.

I've taken interest in this one. The young woman was a former internet celebrity. She became a focal point of news sensation for the uncontrollable hiccups. A young woman who had the nation aid her in her crisis of unstoppable hiccups. After a few months of therapy, she was "cured" of them.
Shannon Griffin was murdered by two men. Jennifer Mee is accused of luring Griffin to his death.
During the downtime of her internet celebrity, she ran with a dope boy name Lamont Newtown. She would often runaway from her family to live with him. He would keep his "down ass bitch" in line by telling her things that makes her self-esteem feel good. One thing was to help him make money. She would tell fiends that her boy sells dope.

Her boyfriend Newtown and LaRon Raiford would eventually shoot and killed a man. Who would of thought that Mee met this guy on the social networks.

Life In the iron college for Laron Raiford.
Shannon Griffin was the victim in an apparent robbery gone wrong.  Griffin met her on the social networks and wanted to get with her. He was a survivor of Hurricane Katrina and wanted to start a new life in Florida. He meets her and hangs with her.

His family expressed some sort of concern about her. Maybe it was her demeanor or the fact that she carried celebrity or one of the same. It was the fact that the family didn't trust her.

It's was proven right when they've found out that the young man was killed and the girl was no where to be found. After all they've left together, how the hell could she not know?

Mee denies that she "set up" Griffin. But the prosecutors are saying otherwise. They've painted the woman as a cold, manipulative and heartless individual who felt that "being a thug" was the only way to survive.

Mee wanted to be a product of the hood. I guess it caught up with her.
The Associated Press reports that after a day of questioning dozens of people, prosecutors and attorneys for Jennifer Mee selected a jury of 12, plus four alternates. Pinellas County Judge Nancy Moate Ley told potential jurors that the trial would probably wrap up by the end of the week, and opening statements are scheduled for Wednesday morning.

Mee is charged with first-degree murder in the death of Shannon Griffin, a 22-year-old Wal-Mart worker. Prosecutors say Mee lured Griffin to a St. Petersburg home under the pretense of buying marijuana — but instead, two of Mee's friends robbed him at gunpoint. Griffin struggled with the suspects and was shot several times.

Trial for Mee's former boyfriend Lamont Newton.
Detectives said Mee accepted a friend request from Griffin on a social networking website five or six days before the robbery, but it was unclear if Griffin had recognized her as the "hiccup girl."

Mee's co-defendant, LaRon Raiford, was convicted and sentenced to life in prison in August. Lamont Newton, the other co-defendant who was also Mee's boyfriend at the time of the crime, has not yet gone to trial.

At issue is whether Mee is a bystander or the person who planned the robbery — prosecutors say she played an active role in planning the robbery, which led to Griffin's death. Under Florida law, people can be convicted of murder if they commit a serious felony crime — such as robbery — and someone was killed as a result.

John Trevena, Mee's attorney, said his client suffered from Tourette's Syndrome, a neurological disorder that can cause involuntary movements and speech problems. He said that the hiccups were one symptom of Tourette's and that he will mention that during the trial.

"It won't be used as a direct cause for what occurred but it might help explain her errors in judgment and her often thoughtless response to law enforcement," said Trevena, who said that Mee did not participate in the robbery.

He added that his client has been diagnosed with schizophrenia and that he plans to explain that to the jury as well.

Trevena said Mee has been in Pinallas lock up pending trial since her October 2010 arrest — much of that time in isolation because detention deputies say she is a high profile inmate.

Mee has experienced periodic bouts of hiccups while in jail, said Trevena, and she is being treated with a drug called thorazine, which treats psychotic disorders.

"It controls the hiccups," he said.

Mee wore a teal dress and her long, dark hair loose during the first day of the trial. She looked sadly at the potential jurors when the charge against her was read by the judge.

Mee is not facing the death penalty. If convicted, she will face life in the iron college without the possibility of parole.

We here at Journal de la Reyna want a fair trial. We believe that Mee is innocent until proven guilty.

I wonder if Keith Urban is watching this?

"Hiccup Girl" Gets 15 In The Iron College!


Jennifer Mee, age 21 take a plea deal in the death of Shannon Griffin. Mee became an internet sensation after it was revealed that she had an uncontrollable hiccup issue. 

While we were focused on the George Zimmerman trial, another person in the news was handed her fate.

Jennifer Mee, the former internet celebrity who had a notorious case of the hiccups is going to the iron college for her role in a botched robbery that killed a man she met on the social networks.

In 2007, then a 15-year old girl, Mee was having an uncontrollable case of hiccups. Somehow her family couldn't figure out how to solve this issue and used every home remedy in the book. When they've visited the doctor and the issue even stomped the doctor.

So Mee took her problems to the internet and it became viral. As she appeared on the social networks, she attracted international attention. During that rise, she was introduced to the world as the "Hiccup Girl".

Her most famous appearance was on NBC's Today show in which she embraced a hug from country star Keith Urban.

After six months of therapy and treatments, her hiccups tone down. So she was cured of the constant hiccups.
Jennifer Mee known as the "Hiccup Girl" is taking fault for a botched robbery. She will be sentenced to the iron college soon.
Now after a few years out of the limelight, the young woman became a product of her environment.

When she gotten around 17 years old, she became more enticed towards the "gangsta lifestyle of hip-hop."

There were stories about Mee being a runaway and having issues with her family. She would runaway and end up with her then boyfriend Lamont Newton, a known dope boy.

When she was was bored, she would often put some raunchy and provocative pictures on the social networks. She would soon attract the attention of the victim, Shannon Griffin.

Shannon Griffin, a young man new to the St. Petersburg area was working at a local job. He came from the disaster of Hurricane Katrina to live with family in Florida. I guess how this jumped off with Mee was the meeting at his job. They contacted each other by social networks and by phone.

Well apparently Mee enticed Griffin to meet her in a rough neighborhood. I guess this was a going to be a set up because when Griffin met her near an abandon home, two men jumped him and tried to rob him of his stuff.
Shannon Griffin, the victim of a fatal shooting. The woman Jennifer Mee set him up.
Griffin put up a fight and tried to fight for his life. It would end up getting him killed. One of the men shot him and left him for dead. As they let the young man die, the family figured that his safety was concern.

Well since the family knew that Griffin was on a "date" with Mee, they knew something wasn't right with her.

As Griffin's death hit the local news, the family knew that it had to been because of Mee.

So the police came to the home of Mee and arrested her. They would later arrest her boyfriend Newton and Laron Raiford.

These three were charged with first degree murder. Each of them would face life in prison if they're convicted. The Florida prosecutors wanted to really put them in the gas chamber (death row).

Pinellas County Lockup pictures of Lamont Newton, Jennifer Mee and Laron Raiford.
Mee, pleas to the court that it wasn't her that pulled the trigger, it was the other guy. The judge didn't buy that excuse. Even though Mee didn't shoot the young man, her actions rendered the event that lead to the murder.

So after a few years of being in the Pinellas County Lockup, the young woman and her attorneys copped a plea.

In May, Jennifer Mee took the opportunity to not face a jury, by admitting that she played a role in the murder and she will be sentence to 15 years in the iron college for her role. Her sentencing is coming by the near of her birthday in late July.

Newton and Raiford were offered plea deals but I am guessing one of them rejected it.

Now at age 21, she will spend a portion of her life thinking about how her love for a "thug" doomed her chances at a real life. Setting up an innocent man who just wanted to be there for her.

You would have thought that she could use all that internet celebrity to help others who suffer with medical disorders.

Nah, she just wanted to be the pretty little chick that wanted to be a "gangsta boo!"

Anyways, I hope the best for the family of Shannon Griffin.

I would also hope that Mee would turn her life around after this experience. She can't experience the joys of freedom.

The freedom to have a relationship.

The freedom to have a family.

The freedom to see her family move forward with their lives.

The freedom to at least apologize to the family of Shannon Griffin.

Her television appearances show no remorse for the actions that rendered her situation.

Her days and nights for the next 15 years could be long and cold. She'll be sentenced to the Lowell Correctional Facility in Ocala.

And soon the civil lawsuit that going to be issued by the family of Shannon Griffin. They will take the rest of their lives in valued properties.

The young woman and her two male friends will now understand that all lives are valued. They're alive to see the pain they've brought upon Griffin's family. They're alive to do whatever they please while in the iron college.

When Mee gets out (likely in her late 30s or early 40s), she'll be back in the real world knowing that the junk food media will always know her as the "Hiccup Girl" who killed a man.

Remember Jennifer Mee "The Hiccup Girl"?

Distraught: Jennifer Mee breaks down in court at a November hearing. In an interview released today she tearfully denied any part in a 2010 murder
Florida woman best known as the "Hiccup Girl" has a murder trial in May. The woman, Jennifer Mee was responsible for setting up a young man in a botched robbery that led to his murder. Mee, her boyfriend and another friend are facing life in the iron college if they're found guilty.

The young woman who was famous sometime back in 2007 for uncontrollable hiccups (Tourette's syndrome) is facing trial for murder. Jennifer Mee, Laron Raiford and her then boyfriend Lamont Newton were involved in a robbery/murder of Shannon Griffin, a young man who met Mee on Facebook.

Laron Raiford
Laron Raiford.
Mee denies that she set the young man up, but the court found otherwise.

Shannon Griffin was a survivor of the devastating Hurricane Katrina of 2005. Griffin moved with his mother to St. Petersburg from Mississippi. He was working and attending a local college. He apparently heard of the young woman through friends and the social networks. Mee arranged Griffin to meet her at a dope spot and the two men Raiford and Newton were to rob him of his stuff. Griffin put up a fight and one of the men shot him and killed him.

Mee is going to face the judge in May. She may take a plea deal to get a reduced sentence. Right now, if she is convicted for her role in murder, Mee will spend the rest of her life in prison.

Mee was then a 15-year old girl who was making the media circuit for a rare condition that caused repetitive and painful hiccups. Her parents tried to get her all the remedies to stop them, but to no avail.

Lamont Newton
Lamont Newton.
She managed to become the talk of the nation. Her famous interview on NBC Today gain millions of supporters wishing her well. She even got the opportunity to get a hug from Country music star Keith Urban.

Doctors found medication and therapy to help control the hiccups. For the most part, Mee was "cured" of her hiccups. But there lies the dark side of Jennifer Mee.

Mee was a rebellous teenager. She would often run away to live with her boyfriend Lamont Newton, a known dope boy.

She would post that "she was the Gangsta Boo of TBSP (Tampa Bay-St. Petersburg)".

Often on her social networking profiles, Mee would be seen showing mild raunchy of herself as well some pictures of her smoking the kush and drinking.

Laron Raiford and Newton lived in the neighborhood that Mee was to arrange this set up.

Newton wanted to get his girlfriend to lure her "date" to the house. They ended with this plan going wrong.

Mee initially tried to say that it's the fault of Raiford. She claimed that Griffin knew Raiford's previous girlfriend and the jealous boyfriend was going to beat the crap out of him.
Victim: Shannon Griffin
Shannon Griffin, the young man who was gunned down by Lamont Newton and Laron Raiford.
But the police got her to confess to being the bait for a robbery. Now that reckless behavior got her now fearing the shine will fade and the life will be surrounded by "BARS". Trust me, Mee fears going to the iron college.

But do you actually think she is not at fault for her role in Shannon Griffin's murder?
Then a teenager, the world showed sympathy to a young girl who could never cease the constant hiccups.
I mean she can say that she fell with the "wrong crowd" and "she didn't do this" in the face of the camera, but the truth is that she's cold-hearted and doesn't seem to care about the many lives that she's ruined in that night.

Hopefully, justice will be served and we here at Journal de la Reyna believe that Jennifer Mee, Lamont Newton and Laron Raiford deserve a fair trial. We believe if they're to be found guilty in this murder, they should spent the rest of their lives in the iron college.

Currently the three are currently incarcerated in the Pinellas County Jail in Clearwater, Florida.

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to the family of Shannon Griffin.
