2021-10-09
[WashingtonExaminer] A 26-year-old woman was charged in connection to arson during George Floyd riots in St. Louis in 2020.

Nautica Turner conspired with a group to destroy a 7-Eleven, poured lighter fluid inside, and set it on fire, prosecutors said. The alleged incident occurred on June 1, 2020, at the height of protests after Floyd's death.

Turner appeared in federal court Tuesday, Fox 2 Now reported .

On the night of the alleged arson, protesters gathered nearby and blocked Interstate 64. Looters stole goods from the store before setting it on fire.

Turner could face up to five years in federal prison and a $250,000 fine.

#2  Some would argue that it is an injustice to punish blacks for committing felonies because of slavery and systemic racism. Some would also be idiots, but that doesn't seem to stop them.

Considering the volume of misbehavior excused during the Floyd riot season, one wonders what Ms Nautica did to get pinched.

Does any one expect Turner to get anywhere near 5 years in prison and a $250K?
