Justice

Justice.

Today, our family received NJ state Justice. You may remember that 2 years ago, Feb 2009, my uncle was shot and killed by a then 17yr old young man during an attempted robbery. This happened just 2 months after my father died in his sleep from a kidney failure. Two brothers... in two months. No Parent should have to bury two sons.

Today, that young man, now almost 20 years old, received a sentence of 18years in state prison. He must serve 85% of that sentence. He will be at least 35 years old before he is released. He showed no remorse, and no concern for the family who's father, brother, husband, and uncle was taken from them.

It's a sad day to see two families torn apart. Years of missed holidays, special occasions, every day occasions, sporting events, school graduations, babies being born... years will have been robbed. He asked for forgiveness... My heart breaks for him. My heart breaks for my cousins, and my uncles, his brother.

God is good. The enemies plans will not prosper. God always prevails.
