“Former Memphis police officer Alex Beard was speeding to a call with no siren when he rammed into a car, killing 13-year-old Mackala Ross and her mother, Delores Epps, age 53. Mackala’s father, Michael Ross, was severely injured, but survived the crash. This week the former officer was offered a plea deal by prosecutors: six months in jail. Mr. Ross said the sentence was like a ‘slap in my face.’ The prosecutor said ‘this was the best that could be done.’ Hmm. The above photo is Mackala’s school locker where her classmates made a little memorial.”
