Marissa Alexander Released From Jail

Marissa Alexander used Florida’s Stand Your Ground Law in her case to fight off her abusive husband. She was prosecuted by Angela Corey, whose prosecution team was responsible for putting on the lack-luster event in a Florida courtroom, that allowed George Zimmerman to walk free after he murdered Trayvon Martin. In Marissa’s case however, Angela Corey put on her best show and got Marissa sentenced to spend 20 years in jail for shooting a gun into the air in an attempt to scare off her abusive husband.

On Wednesday, Marissa Alexander was freed from jail. She will spend Thanksgiving with her family and will stay at home under house arrest while she awaits a new trial ordered by the 1st District Court of Appeals.
