At this point. We are all devastated. Its almost like we reliving it for the first time. Father of Amy Joyner Francis reacting to todays closing arguments that detail the death of his teenage daughter. Inside prosecutors sean lug told the judge hearing the case that what happened was a targeted attack with three girls conspiring to do harm and one carrying it out in a School Bathroom and the girl charged with criminally negligent homicide. The state maintains she would not have died but from the stress of the alleged assault. The defense says the state did not prove their case and only three punches were landed and what occurred at the school was a common fist fight. The Attorney Says she could not have known that her actions could have taken the victims life because nobody knew she had a rare condition and the spokesperson for the victims family disagreed. And all you can do is hear the video and hear the screaming and know this was indeed a conspiracy. This was premeditated murder. The charge is not murder but criminally negligent homicide and given the ages of the defendants in this case, this is in family court and the judge today says he will have a decision on thursday.
