In Wisconsin, a Kenosha County court has sentenced Chrystul Kizer to 11 years in prison after she pleaded guilty to charges related to the killing in self-defense of the man who sex trafficked and assaulted her in 2018. She was 17 at the time; he had abused her since she was 16. Court records show Kenosha police knew the man, Randall Volar, who was white, had a history of sexually abusing Black girls and was under investigation for sex trafficking, but he remained free for months. Kizer says she shot and killed Volar in self-defense after he drugged her and tried to rape her.
The cruelty is the point.
