Dana Wright’s Courtroom Smile and 285-Year Prison Sentence

A smile of the teenager in the courtroom increase his prison term from 25 years to 285 years.

Sentenced by the parties, but watching you sit there, smile, laugh, shake your head like

this was no big deal.

We'll go to trial.

And if you're convicted of felony murder, you'll go to prison for the rest of your life.

That means you'll die there.

That's what I'm tempted to do.

Dana Wright, 18 years old, was with two friends in October.

Drumerious Ellison, 19, and Delrano Gracie, 18, robbery of 18-year-old high school student

Jordan Clay in an arbor.

But it was strongly resisted by Jordan.

Wright pulled the trigger in the chaos.

Jordan deceased in his apartment in Songhu Village, just a few miles from his home, and

was found by a maintenance worker.

In the courtroom, Wright was grinning from ear to ear, disapproving of the entire trial's

verdict.

When Jordan's family read out the impact statement, his mother couldn't help crying

loudly, while Wright deliberately laughed at her.

I just want to tell y'all, I'll be home soon, and I love my family.

The judge was greatly shocked.

Subsequently, he overturned the original 25-year prison sentence for Wright and ordered him

to decease in prison and never be reunited with his family.

Wright apologized to the judge through his lawyer, saying that he had merely concealed

his fear by smiling and had no intention of showing disrespect to the court.

But it was too late.

Ultimately, Wright was sentenced to 285 years in prison for a smile, and he will spend the

rest of his life in prison.

Do you agree with the judge's verdict?
