Murder Victim’s Daughter Reacts: Biden “And His Supporters, Have Blood On Their Hands”

“YOUR president just granted clemency to the man that killed Katie Skeen!”

After Biden’s decision to commute the sentences of nearly every federal death row inmate to prevent from having them executed, family members have expressed their bitterness and pain at the pro-crime act.

In 2017, Brandon Council walked into a bank and murdered two tellers.

“Desperate, hurt, vulnerable. Katie Skeen and Donna Major died staring down the barrel of that man’s gun. He shot them five times. Five times he put bullet after bullet into their injured, dying bodies,” U.S. Attorney Everett McMillan told the jury.

The jury sentenced Council to death. Biden however decided to overturn the sentence of the jury and save the brutal killer.

Family members are outraged.

“Joe Biden has officially commuted the sentence of the man who murdered my mom, Donna DeVuyst Major, and co worker, Katie Skeen. A sentence that was handed down by a judge and jury who determined that was what was deserved after hearing and seeing all the details of the heinous crimes. At no point did the president consider the victims. Actually, when requesting a formal in person meeting with the federal pardon attorney, we were denied.

The pain and trauma we have endured over the last 7 years has been indescribable. Sitting in a court room for weeks seeing videos and pictures of my mom’s murder with the hope of justice was now just a waste of time. You don’t unsee the graphic images we were shown.

Our judicial system is broken.
Our government is a joke.
Joe Biden’s decision is a clear gross abuse of power.
He, and his supporters, have blood on their hands.”

Other family members were equally furious.

“To all of you Die hard Democrats, I just thought I would let you know that YOUR president just granted clemency to the man that killed Katie Skeen!” wrote Tracy Skeen, widower of Katie Skeen.

“I feel like I could throw up!” another one of Skeen’s relatives, Stacy Cox Cannon, wrote. “I just have no words.”

Former federal prosecutor Derek Shoemake – now an attorney in private practice in Lugoff, S.C. – was on the prosecutorial team that secured Council’s death penalty conviction.

According to Shoemake, “it is difficult to see a sentence wiped away from 400 miles away after it was legally imposed by a jury of men and women from South Carolina who spent weeks listening to evidence, deliberating, and carefully deciding the appropriate punishment.”

“It is also difficult to know that the Skeen and Major families will celebrate yet another Christmas without their loved ones, while the man who killed Donna and Katie will be among the list of federally convicted murders celebrating a political victory,” Shoemake added.

Biden also commuted the death sentences of Brandon Basham and Chadrick Fulks – escaped inmates who in November 2002 carjacked 44-year-old Alice Donovan of Conway, S.C., kidnapped her in her own car, took her to a secluded cemetery, raped and murdered her. The pair also raped and murdered 19-year-old Samantha Burns of Huntington, West Virginia.

The Democrats have become a pro-crime party that despises victims and worships criminals.
