OTHER CASE THAT WE'RE WATCHING, FLORIDA OFFICIALS REFUSE TO FILE MURDER CHARGES AGAINST THE WOMAN WHO SHOT A MOTHER OF FOUR, A.J. OWENS, THROUGH HER DOOR. >> Joy: AND KILLED HER. >> Whoopi: AND KILLED HER IN FRONT OF HER KIDS SAYING THAT THEY CAN'T PROVE SHE HAD A DEPRAVED MIND. NOW, THIS WOMAN ALLEGEDLY CHECKED TO SEE WHAT THE STAND YOUR GROUND LAWS WERE AND THEN SHE SHOT
THE MOTHER THROUGH THE DOOR AND MURDERED HER. THAT'S MURDER AS FAR AS I CAN SAY. >> Joy: IT SEEMS LIKE -- >> Sunny: SECOND DEGREE. >> Joy: SECOND DEGREE. >> Whoopi: MURDER IS MURDER. >> Joy: COULDN'T YOU ARGUE THERE'S INTENTION? >> Sara: SHE SAID GO GET YOUR MOM. WHILE HE WENT TO GET HIS MOM, SHE WENT TO GET HER GUN. >> Sunny: THAT'S PRETTY DIFFICULT TO
PROVE. IT FALLS SQUARELY IN THE SECOND-DEGREE MURDER REALM. THAT SHOWS A DEPRAVED MIND AND CONNECTED TO A RECKLESS DISREGARD FOR HUMAN LIFE AND THAT'S -- >> Joy: HATE CRIME ALSO. >> Sunny: THEY'RE NOT ELEVATING IT TOO A HATE CRIME PRIMARILY BECAUSE OF STAND YOUR GROUND. THAT'S THE LARGER CONVERSATION. BOTH HAVE STAND YOUR GROUND LAWS AND BRINGS US BACK TO TRAYVON MARTIN'S MURDER. WHEN YOU LOOK THAT
UP, THEY THINK THEY CAN PROTECT THEMSELVES WITH THE LAW AND THE LAW IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE -- ACT IN THAT WAY. IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE USED AS A TOOL. >> Whoopi: YEAH. >> Sara: I THINK DEPRAVED MIND COULD BE PROVED WHICH IS -- DEPRAVED MIND REQUIRES EVIDENCE OF HATRED, SPITE, ILL WILL OR INTENT. SHE HAD A HISTORY OF ANIMOSITY AND ARGUMENTS WITH THE VICTIM
AND THE DEFENDANT SINCE 2021 AND ADMITTED USING THE "N" WORD TOWARDS THE CHILDREN AND TOLD THE YOUNG BOY TO BRING HIS MOTHER BACK. WHAT MORE DO YOU NEED TO PROVE SHE WAS OUT AND OPEN ABOUT HER HATRED. >> Alyssa: SHE WAS CHARGED WITH MANSLAUGHTER WHICH COULD CARRY UP TO 30 YEARS. THE BAR SEEMS THERE. IT'S AS PREMEDITATED AS YOU COULD LAY OUT. THE GENERATIONAL TRAUMA. A
YOUNG BOY WHO EXPERIENCED THAT AND GOD BLESS LIKE I'M SO GLAD RALPH SURVIVED THIS. WE DIDN'T KNOW IF HE WOULD BUT HE WILL CARRY THAT FOREVER. THE THE KIDS THAT SAW THEIR MOM GUNNED DOWN. SOMETHING WRONG WHEN WE'RE THIS AFRAID OF OUR NEIGHBORS AND THIS AFRAID -- >> Sara: IT'S RACISM. PUREESISM. >> Joy: DOESN'T WANT ANY BLACK NEIGHBORS. >> Sunny: THE RADICALIZATION THAT WE'RE SEEING. >>
Alyssa: ALSO THE CASE IN UPSTATE NEW YORK WHERE A WHITE WOMAN PULLED INTO A DRIVEWAY AND A MAN SHOT HER. >> Whoopi: LOOK, I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS, BUT IT FEELS LIKE BECAUSE THE IDEA THAT YOU CAN HOPE TO SAY, OH, I WAS FRIGHTENED ALLOWS YOU TO KILL SOMEONE INDISCRIMINATELY. THAT SHOULD SCARE THE POOP OUT OF EVERYONE IN THE ROOM. AS YOU POINTED OUT --
THAT'S ALL RIGHT. OH, YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS, IT'S THEM CALLING SUN THINK TO SAY THAT SHE HAS ANOTHER LEGAL NOTE. GO AHEAD, SUNNY. >> Sunny: ANDREW LESTER HAS PLEADED NOT GUILTY AND TOLD INVESTIGATORS HE FEARED RALPH WAS TRYING TO BREAK IN. SUSAN LORENTZ SAID SHE DID NOT INTEND TO HIT AJ AND ENTERED A NOT GUILTY PLEA. >> Whoopi: S
