Slain man’s brother, judge hug ex-cop sentenced to 10 years

I am not sure how I would feel about someone who shot my brother, but kudos to this guy and his courage to do this.

It is so easy to get caught up in the drama of all of this race/law enforcement/etc, but this guy, who has "the right" to be bitter, chose to rise above it, deny the victim label that the world tried to give him, and see a person as a person.

His choices have a louder voice than just the words he spoke and the actions he took.

Again Kudos, Mr. Brandt Jean. Thank you for your example.

Agreed, that is a true Christian. I'm sure it meant the world to her and will allow him to heal too. Amazing.

Forgiveness is so important, especially for those harmed.
