Stood her ground, but faces 20 years in prison for protecting her person in her own property.
Marissa Alexander faces 20 years in a Florida prison for "Standing Her Ground." Her husband beat her while she was pregnant.
After yet another beating, Alexander fired a warning shot into the ceiling. That shot saved her life.
Prosecutor Angela Corey did not take into account that Marissa Alexander: (1) Had a court injunction against her crazed husband, (2) Had Given Birth 9 Days Earlier, (3) Was trained to use a weapon and earned a concealed weapons permit.
And yet George Zimmerman practically walked away with murder in spite of the fact that he was not defending himself when he killed Trayvon Martin.
This is "double standard" application of law and needs to end. Now.
