A 17-year-old Georgia girl accused of plotting to attack a predominantly Black church in 2019, apologized in court on Thursday before being sentenced to four years in a juvenile facility and probation

The teen was arrested last November after her plan to attack the historically black church with knives was foiled, according to police. Her plot resembled the one carried out by Dylann Roof at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in South Carolina five years ago.Georgia teenager arrested in alleged plot to attack a black church "I'm truly sorry for what I've done," the teen said Thursday to the members of the church during an emotional statement in court.

While she apparently hates or hated us, we do not hate her, and do not wish to nullify her future, and do not give up on her."The plot unraveled after a student at Gainesville High School overheard the teenager talking about the threat and alerted the principal, who in turn notified a school resource officer, Hall County Assistant District Attorney Julia Greene said.

This is Georgia this is why people should vote for the new leadership that’s running for office or this stuff doesn’t change.If this girl was black and it was a white church it wouldn’t have been 4 years and probation

And she is only sorry for being caught, not for her intentions.

That’s fun

Apologize? I’m sorry but lock her up or get her some serious treatment. This girl is a risk and people don’t change that easily.

This is what happens when you’re constantly being brainwashed by the liberal-controlled MSM.

4 years in JD? Should have gotten charged as an adult because her intentions definitely qualifies as domestic terrorism, must be nice to be white because Kalief Browder wasn't afforded that luxury of being sent to JD or be allowed to be bailed out of jail.

No tried as an adult for plotting mass murder?! Must of been white

How to set yourself apart:' 1. Workout 2. Eat clean 3. Multiple sources of income 4. Don’t care about the opinions of others. 5. Take responsibility for all aspects of your life 6. Leverage your skills 7. Read 8. Provide value 9. Crush your goals 10. Get better every day

I sincerely hope that she learns and grows. She needs to do some serious soul searching and address why she had let so much hate to harbor in her.

You mean Trump supporter.

maryisawesome16 THAT GIRL WAS ON NEWS OB OCT. 22. 2020 HER SENTENCE WAS PROBATION. I DO NOT KNOW WHERE THAT STORY CAME FROM. BUT CHECK GEORGIA NEWS AGAIN FOR OCT. 22. 2020

I question that her apology was done under pressure. She did not mean she is sorry. 4 years won’t make her a better person.

I thought Georgia was one of those states that let their criminal justice system get taken over by the private prison lobby

No more apologies from here out.

This person's actions were probably the result of Trump's divisive words which filtered down to her parents and then they filtered it down to her. She mostly like wanted to appease her parents. Or her boyfriend didn't have the guts so he sent her to do his dirty work.

This makes you wonder just what are some parents teaching their kids morally ? As we can see here, moral teachings are part of the learning process too !

B_Sputnik that’s it?

LockHerUp

I'm telling you this problem starts at home! Wtf

Watch your kids online activity and know who they're associating with online. She was 16 years-old when the school found out about her notebook and she confessed. Kids at that age are impressionable and easily manipulated by bad people.

Good parenting 😳

She's white AND said she was sorry? Easily took 20 years off her sentence for that. 🙄

Hate can really ruin your life.

Riddance.

4 years? Maybe if jail wasn't a training ground for racism this would be a good thing.

What is wrong with these kids? At 17 we worked, planned futures, played guitar and partied around the keg. The thought of killing or plotting to hurt anyone just didn't enter our minds. Do any these kids today use their common sense? Do they even have any?

tiwasavage people like Beyonce get major issues too you know

She is a juvenile obviously become excuse ,the color is the reason.

4 years. For plotting mass murder. 17 years old. Sentenced to a juvenile facility. Sounds about white.

No no there was no racism!

Charge her as an adult

'The plot unraveled after a student at Gainesville High School overheard the teenager talking about the threat and alerted the principal, who in turn notified a school resource officer, Hall County Assistant District Attorney Julia Greene said.' Well done.

I'm sorry, an apology and 4 years. Let's talk about what a 17 yr old black female would receive as punishment for the same thing on white people. Yeah ok, no racial inequality right.

HERE IS THE TONY BOBULINSKI PRESS CONFERENCE THAT WOULDN'T COVER BECAUSE THEY ARE BIASED LIARS:

What excuse y'all got for her She only apologized because she got caught...

Who was this CHILD surrounded by? Where was she infected by this disgusting ideology? Parents? Then they should be held accountable. Online? Friends? Who are they. Where is the parental and community accountability for this? We are not born this way. Children are not born racist.
