"John Booker Routledge, pursuant to the North Carolina statute section 14, You are charged with murder in the first degree with aggravated circumstances." The judge stated
You couldn't believe you were witnessing this. Your own brother going to jail for something he didn't even do.
"If convicted, the maximum sentence would be the death penalty"
Everyone gasped.
Feeling your chest start to tense up, you grab Jj's wrist. Tears rolling down your face as you started to cry again.
He was only 17 how could this happen?
"Your honor, he's 17!" Jj says standing up, you were in too much shock to stop him
"Stop!" Kiara says holding him back
"no are you kidding me! He yells again
"J stop!" i whisper
"hey John B , were gonna figure it out!" Jj says
"John B! John b!" You say starting to walk towards him, but an officer pulls you back
You start crying more struggling to get out of his grip, kicking your legs.
"Stop dont touch her!" Kiara yelled
"come y/n, lets go" Sarah says grabbing you away
You guys start heading out of the courtroom.
"is this a joke, like are we in hell or?" Kie asks
"i should have never came hone" Sarah states
You couldn't even speak, you were too shocked. Your body was tensed up , your mascara was all on your face & you were sweating , feeling like you were going to pass out any second.
Jj noticed your unstable state. He placed his hand on your lower back as the group continued walking.
"Sorry for what you and your family are going through" you over here some kook saying
"can you please shut up!" kiara yells
"of course you think the system works because it was made to protect you & people like you!"
"hell have his day in court"
"HE SHOULDN'T EVEN BE IN COURT!" i yelled
"YOU SHOULD!" Yelled Sarah
"Cause you're a murderer!" Kiara says
"I know you're upset, okay?" Ward says walking towards you guys
"dont come any closer to us" Sarah states
"UPSET? THATS MY BROTHER! MY BLOOD! HE WOULD NEVER KILL ANYONE LIKE YOUR SON HAS! BUT NO ONE WILL TAKE OUR SIDE BECAUSE YOU SUCH AN IMPORTANT PART OF THIS ISLAND" you scream
You and kiara start walking up to him, angrier this time. But Jj & pope stop you guys.
"MURDERER!" you scream
"MURDERER!"
Jj holds you from behind as you start to sob. The police started walking towards you guys, but you didn't care.
"Why dont you take the kooks down for a change man!" Jj asks pointing to them, still holding you back
"you wanna get arrested? Get out now!" Shoop yelled
Jj wraps and arm around your waist as you all start walking away.
"its no coincidence that your daughter is sitting with us" Kiara states finishing them off
"come on guys lets go" sarah says taking you & kiaras hand
You couldn't believe this was happening, you hoped that when you woke up tmr itd all be over.
