  • A Florida woman who shot and killed her neighbor -- a mother of four -- through her front door at a home in Marion County was arrested Tuesday night, Sheriff Billy Woods told FOX 35.
    Susan Lorincz was arrested and booked into jail on charges of manslaughter with a firearm, culpable negligence, assault, and battery, officials said.
    She's accused of shooting and killing Ajika "AJ" Owens, who went to her house to confront her over allegations that she yelled at her children for playing in a field near her home, and then threw a rollerblade skate at one of the kids.

    What's wrong with calling the police and asking them to come out if you're scared of someone? This woman has ruined four children's lives (and other family members) and her own family. For what????

      Whats wrong with calling the cops when someone steals your childs ipad and throws a skate at them instead of banging on their door and issuing death threats

      It has to be premeditated to be murder. This was spur of the moment. She didn't know the neighbor was going to come over. Not for sure.

    The woman shot thru the door. She was not in fear for her life. I am so glad that older ppl in our neighborhood allowed us be kids. And if a parent came to to the door they had a discussion, not a murder. Glad she was arrested. Charge should be murder!!!

      Im sure the black woman and her kids did ABSOLUTELY nothing in this situation to cause all the friction between the two neighbors. I'm sure that neighbor woke up that morning with intentions of killing a black woman. Black woman should have stayed on her property and called the cops and she would still be alive. Shooter was wrong but tell the other side of the story of what led up to all of this or shut the hell up about the black woman and her kids being totally innocent. Simple. End of argument.

    • Sweet T
      Sweet T 3 months ago +13

      @Deus Vult The kids are the witnesses so we will find out what lead up to it. She said the kids were in her yard. That still doesn't constitute a reason to shoot their mother through a door. I'm sure no one is w/o blame.

      SC has a Stand Your Ground law also. However you can't fire through a door because you can't identify all targets or where the bullet will impact if it misses the intended target. You now because there might be innocent children near or behind the person you are shooting at.

      She will actually get convicted of it. You clearly don't understand how the law works. Whatever you believe about Kyle Rittenhouse, that is where the prosecution doomed themselves from the start. You can't prove murder with so many variables. And her going back into her house, even after aggrevating a situation, would be pretty difficult to prove murder.

    When my kid came home crying about being beat up, we went to confront the parents. Both kids were brought together and the story sorted out. It seems that both kids were at fault and both got punished (spanking) right then and there! Us parents shook hands and it was over. Of course that was over 45 years ago, before people got stupid and before politicians made it illegal to reprimand your own kid! Yes, my kid came home telling me teachers said to call police if I spanked them. I had words with the teachers too!

    Glad the sheriff is being thorough so the shooter doesn't get off on a technicality. After he explained why it took so long to arrest her I understood that they had to make sure it is an iron clad case. Good work deputies!! God bless those children and their grandmother. Love coming in to them from W.V.!!

    This is very sad. 😢. The children will have a very hard time dealing with this. Probably internalize that they were responsible, if only...
    Manslaughter is a charge based on intent. But in my eyes they gave this woman the least of the degrees and I'm curious as to why?
    Neighbors with children have to be vigilant in being the best neighbors towards one another. Please please if it's an ongoing dispute please call the police. Please! 😢

      Kimbella, we all know if this mom who now is deceased was the shooter she most definitely would’ve been arrested immediately; the police had to arrest this woman because everyone is watching Fl right now (I live in NY) and people are looking at Fl side eyed because how they treat black people down there; it’s really sad you can see the division between races and how they handle situations between white and black people.

    The manslaughter charge is coming from the Sheriff's Dept. The DA's Office has the prosecutorial discretion to up the charge to 2nd degree murder. Once they review the evidence, charges can be raised, lowered or dismissed by the DA.

    If she deleted any video, she should be charged with destroying evidence. And it is on the police to have collected that video immediately. If she immediately claimed self-defense and also immediately erased the video, she should have been arrested right away. By not doing so, they gave her the opportunity to destroy evidence SHE needed to support her own claim.

    Both the shooter and the victim made bad decisions. Call the police to try and settle disputes. Never go to a person's house and confront someone when both parties are angry. And a gun should only be used when your life is in immediate danger, not to settle arguments.

      The police had been called 6-8 times already. These 2 adult women couldn't work out their issues. But you would think a mother would stop her kids from going somewhere they were not wanted, near a very angry woman's house. But mom and kids have no respect for their neighbors.

    Hopefully as the Prosecutor and District Attorney learn more, the current charge of manslaughter will be upgraded to Murder in the 3rd degree. Yet, I realize Florida has two forms of manslaughter, voluntary and involuntary. However, I don't understand how a purposeful discharge of a firearm could fit as voluntary manslaughter in this situation.

  • Nina Daly

    There are lessons to be learned from this, namely BE RESPECTFUL of ALL others and whatever you do avoid confrontation. My understanding is this feud was fueled by the deceased woman’s children continued to play in an empty lot owned by the shooter. I get it. It’s an empty lot. Why not allow the kids to play in it? But it belongs to that woman and an argument could be made that the kids playing there subjects her to liability if any of them were to get hurt playing there. The mother should have told the children NOT to play there. It certainly wasn’t worth her life.

    The stand your ground laws help create these type of situations. Many people don't really know the law and when you can use deadly force. I think she should be charged with murder, and maybe a hate crime if evidence proves that. 25 years to life would be ok with me. The victim probably didn't know she had a gun as she was behind the door. Now if the victim has a gun or maybe a knife, kicks the door open, and comes at the shooter, then different outcome. I'm so sorry for the victim, family and their friends. There are more guns than people in USA. Over 48,000 people die each year by gun violence in this country. We all pay for this violence in more taxes. Is it really worth it?
