There was no biracial or wide spread of age in the jury, and Desirae is biracial of Black and White the DA did not offer her a plea bargin, the DA kept bringing Desirae's race up through out the trial. The detective lied on the stand, stating "that Desirae was not on drugs", Desirae was on drugs and was not in her right state of mind when arrested she was not tested to see what was in her system, both parents feel that she should have been tested. She also seen her bestfriend and her aunt at the store the night of the incident and doesn't remember talking to them. Desirae was sentenced 50 years in prison she also DID NOT get a second chance.
