The shooting of Ralph Yarl, an innocent teen,
Came as a shock to many, and what's more keen
That justice will be served
For the wrong that was observed
A reminder to never act mean

A man has been charged by the Clay County prosecutor in the shooting of 16-year-old Ralph Yarl. Amazed but so glad to hear it.

Andrew D. Lester, 84, faces charges of first-degree assault and armed criminal action. The assault charge is a class A felony which means Lester faces no less than 10 and up to 30 years or life imprisonment.

Ralph Yarl was shot just because he rung the wrong door bell!
This white home owner so racist he thought he was a threat because he was a black teen.
If this guy gets off on the 'right to defend ' clause . This country fked for real and every black person who lives here.
