Episode 534: Ajike Owens
Ajike Owens went to her neighbor’s house in Ocala, Florida on June 2, 2023 to confront her about harassing her children. While knocking on a closed, locked metal front door, AJ was shot in the chest by Susan Lorincz. Lorincz tried to claim self defense with Florida’s “stand your ground” laws, but there is no question she killed Ajike out of malice after years of harassing the families in the neighborhood.
