The GBI has charged Tsion Clayton (23) and Kimone Green (21) both of Lowndes County, GA with one count of Malice Murder in connection to the death of Brianna Long on 29 Oct 2023. She was hit by a stray bullet as she worked as a bartender at The Pier Bar near Valdosta State University (VSU), where she was a student. A co-worker at the bar was also hit by a bullet and later recovered from his injuries. In an average year, 1,543 die by firearms violence in Georgia. Source: everytownresearch.org

I can't imagine being the father of Brianna Long. If convicted, the two young suspect's lives are basically over. They will either face life imprisonment or the death penalty. Georgia has executed 1,022 convicts since 1735; 77 between 1983 and 2024.

We were eating barbecue in Jackson, GA, one day -- mid 1990s -- and a few state troopers came by for a late lunch. They were to be cranking up old Sparky later that night, and these guys were preparing for their shift at the correctional institute.

An acquaintance of mine (close friend of friends) was brutally murdered in Atlanta (1980s), and the murderer ended his life with a visit to Jackson. I wasn't too upset about it.
