Jury Begins Deliberations In Trial Of Woman Accused Of Killing Her Alleged Abuser

Cherelle Baldwin a young woman from Bridgeport Conn. is  accused of killing her abusive ex-boyfriend, Jeffrey Brown. By all indications it was a case of self-defense. Her first trial in 2015 ended with a hung jury. No that does not mean a group of well endowed man that are hearing a criminal cases.

This lady has been behind bars  on $1 million bail for almost three years. Who was this joker she killed; a member of some royal family? She certainly isn’t related to some politician.

On May 18, 2013, police say Baldwin killed Brown, 24, by striking him with her car and pinning him against a cement wall. Baldwin claims after yeas of abuse she acted in self-defense. Makes sense to me.

When police arrived, they found Baldwin on the ground with a broken leg, crying out for her 19-month-old baby who was left unattended inside the house. She told police that her ex-boyfriend had tried to kill her, and she wasn’t sure how he ended up in front of her car.

During her testimony in court, she told jurors that Brown broke into her house, whipped her with a belt and then wrapped it around her neck and strangled her. After she escaped to her car, without glasses or shoes, she said, he followed her and continued his attack in her vehicle. Somehow the women beater wound up under Baldwins vehicle with a set of Goodyears running across his sky piece.

Baldwin is charged with murder and faces 25 to 60 years if convicted.

Personally I hope the lady beats the rap. There are too many of these jitter-bugs that get off scott-free after years of abusing their ladies. It is almost an epidemic.  She probably did the world a favor.
