    North Carolina Murder Suspect Mistakenly Released from Prison Turns Himself Back In, Police Say

    A North Carolina murder suspect was mistakenly released from prison this week due to an incorrect court order that said his charges had been dismissed. He has since turned himself back in to authorities as of Saturday, reports Fox News

    Jaylan Noah Davis, 25, was arrested late last year for fatally shooting Arthur Mikulski, 42, on Nov. 26. Davis was reportedly charged with

    “murder, two counts of shooting into an occupied property and a convicted felon in possession of a firearm,”

    according to FOX Carolina.

    Davis is being held without bond at the Mecklenburg County Detention Center, reports reveal. The Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Department sent out an alert on Friday, a day after he was released, calling Davis

    “dangerous.”

    He is expected to be back in court on Monday. 

    “I am grateful that it appears that no one was harmed as a result of this mishap, though I am sure it was an emotional rollercoaster for the families involved. Our criminal justice system will never be flawless but we will learn from this experience and improve our processes accordingly,”

    Sheriff Garry McFadden said in a statement.

    Twitter Reacts to Man Receiving 70-Year Prison Sentence For Spitting at Officers

    People are speaking out against Texas’s justice system after a man was given a 70-year prison sentence for spitting at police.

    Larry Pearson, 36, was charged with 2 counts of harassment of a public servant and handed a 70-year life sentence, Wednesday. According to TMZ, Pearson is accused of spitting at 2 Lubbock police officers who arrested him in May 2022 on domestic violence charges following an incident with a woman who said Pearson hit her in the face.

    Prosecutors alleged that Pearson became irate after finding out the woman was not being taken in too, and that is when the spitting began, reports note. Pearson reportedly kicked at the doors inside the cop car and spit at the cops when they opened the car door. According to prosecutors, Pearson continued spitting at officers upon arrival at the Lubbock County Detention Center.

    Pearson reportedly had prior convictions for

    “family violence and aggravated robbery”

    and, consequently, the

    “minimum sentence the jury could impose was 25 years,”

    reports reveal. During the trial’s closing arguments, prosecutor Jessica Gorman asked the jury to

    “send a message”

    to not only Pearson but to

    “society.”

    Pearson was handed a 70-year sentence that has been stirring up outrage amongst the Twitter community. 

    Rapper Meek Mill has since spoken out about the harsh sentencing,

    “Nah this action level!!!!! Ain’t no way they can give us that much time for a misdemeanor like spitting… ion care what they gone try to say his record is! No regard for black life in that courtroom,”

    he tweeted.
