This week, we will be voting on HB 377. This bill gives the Chief Justice the authority to suspend trial court judges. NC has a serious issue with judges releasing VIOLENT FELONS. Actions have consequences, and we’ll be holding these irresponsible judges accountable.

🚨#BREAKING: Outrage is erupting after a Charlotte NC man who was PREVIOUSLY CONVICTED of M*RDER was LET OUT OF JAIL ON BOND by a judge for possessing a weapon... ...AND 84 MINUTES LATER he sh0t 2 men IN THE BACK and K*LLED ONE OF THEM His name is David Simpson and he was sitting in the Mecklenburg County Jail on a warrant for possessing a WEAPON. He posted a $10,000 bond. The doors opened at 12:21 in the morning. At 1:45 AM, 84 minutes later, he sh0t 2 men at the Country Club Apartments on Dunlavin Way. One de*d at the scene. One in the hospital. Investigators say surveillance video shows Simpson walking up BEHIND both men and firing twice. Why? A PARKING SPOT. The victim lived a few doors down and had parked in the spot in front of Simpson's door. That's it. That's the whole reason. In 2013, Simpson was charged with FIRST-DEGREE M*RDER for shooting Richard Bonds during a fight in an uptown parking lot. He pleaded it down to voluntary manslaughter. He served ONLY FIVE YEARS. He was out in 2020. His record and found TEN more notable arrests AFTER that release!!!! I found 9 separate sets of charges in the last 3 years alone. He has literally been charged OVER AND OVER with possession of a firearm by a felon. A man who already k*lled someone. Who is BARRED BY LAW from touching a gun. Who kept getting caught with one anyway. ...AND SOMEHOW A JUDGE SAW ALL OF THIS AND LET A MAN OUT ON BOND???????????? He refused to even come to court Friday morning!!!!!! A judge had to ORDER HIM BACK that afternoon!!! WHY WAS HE LET OUT OF JAIL??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE DO NOT HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS!!!!!!!
