Guilty verdict for white Florida woman who fatally shot Black mother

Susan Lorincz faces up to 30 years for manslaughter in a case that provoked outrage from civil rights advocates

A jury on Friday convicted a white Florida woman for shooting and killing a Black mother of four through her front door in a case that provoked outrage from civil rights advocates and the victim's family.

Susan Lorincz denied the manslaughter of Ajike AJ" Owens, who came to her house to remonstrate after the defendant assaulted two of Owens' children on 2 June last year. Lorincz could receive a prison sentence of up to 30 years in prison at a hearing on a date to be determined.
