Yahoo! News: “After calls for her detainment, police in Florida have announced the arrest of a white woman who allegedly shot and killed her Black neighbor earlier this month.
Online jail records show 58-year-old Susan Louise Lorincz’s booking date as June 7. Listed charges include manslaughter with a firearm, culpable negligence, battery, and assault in the shooting death of Ajike Owens. Per the Marion County Sheriff’s Office, the manslaughter with a firearm count is a felony that carries with it the possibility of up to 30 years behind bars if convicted as charged.
“My detectives have been working around the clock since this happened, sifting through evidence and interviewing witnesses,” Marion County Sheriff Billy Woods said in a video statement shared Tuesday evening. “Now I said this at the beginning: We want the same thing as Mrs. Owens’ family, and that’s justice. Now here’s the thing about justice—she’s on her own time.””
