  1. That murderer totally expects to be exonerated. He should spend the rest of his days sitting in a prison cell, staring at the walls, asking himself why he opened fire.

  2. The shooter’s lawyer said he wasn’t trying to hurt anybody. That’s why he used his gun instead of his bazooka.

  3. Mr Monahan's lawyer, says that "his client did not have bad intent." The Sheriff says that Mr monahan showed no remorse. A young life lost because of a despicable irresponsible human being. Clearly a danger to the community.

  4. Good thing that guy had a gun to protect himself

  5. We'll never know if this young gal would have had children, and if her future kids may have discovered a cure for cancer. We will never know what good Kaylin would have brought into the world. I hope this 65 year old rots in jail for the rest of his days. Prayers to Kaylin's parents and loved ones. What absolute horror for them.

  6. Wave white flag if think you are lost.

  7. 💁 a little more compassion & loving, a little less judging & fearing .. this is a glaring & impactful coincidence for a reason; for a purpose .. may they not go to waste .. may both persons had not been shot at; one seriously hurt, the other killed; in vain .. pass the necessary life-saving laws .. the crimes in the city are getting worse …

  8. When you live in a country where the majority of its citizens have access to weapons you don't focus your time on banning weapons, you focus your time on doing public announcements on laws on how to use your weapon. In most cases you can't just shoot someone just because they're trespassing on your property.

  9. Its a very sad, sad country where the people are scared of their own shadows. So much so that they feel they need automatic Guns to feel safe? What a sad, people to allow this kind of thing happen and keep happening without doing anything about it, truly sad??

  10. My condolences 🙏🏿 Rip

  11. Guilty of going off his rocker for sure…

  12. Kaylyn Gillis’s parents should demand that she be cloned. We know how to do it. The killer’s family can pay for it. That would give Gillis, or any murder victim, a new lease on life. Who’s to say the clone is not the original? She would be able to have children, children with the same genetic makeup that the original Kaylyn would have had. Who say she should not have that opportunity, to pass her genes to another generation? I say, CLONE HER, and giver her a new lease on life.

  13. What is this 2nd degree murder BS??? She was shot in cold blood! Her killer, Kevin Monaghan should die for his crime, and the sooner the better.

  14. Here come all the "good guys with guns" shooting at everything that moves now.

  15. This is a sad story😥 but how does an SUV accidentally turn itself down the wrong road? Was this a self-driving SUV? Reporters need to learn how to report the real truth.

  16. Hope they give him Life in prison

  17. This should make all Americans angry. Life without parole.

  18. People turn around in my driveway all the time and never once have I thought about shooting them ffs. This man Is pu😺 y and has no right to own any form of weaponry.

  19. What fuc*king madness I'm seeing here 😡…I hope they fry his dumba*s…RIP babygirl

  20. 2nd amendment is the problem. This was made a long time ago when law inforcement were not enough and traveling was not fast enough to save life.

  21. Kaylin Gillis's murder spotlighted the misinterpretation of private property rights and citizens' beliefs that a Republic means they are responsible for shooting people.

  22. Let me guess: He'll claim that he was standing his ground and that he's the actual victim

  23. 2nd amendment lovers filling up the prison buying guns. If the terrorists Republican leaders did fill the prison up with drug people they must get the dummies in by guns. The gop the Republican terrorists of America.

  24. I'm very curious to hear the defense for his "not guilty" plea. This was 2nd degree murder.

  25. He needs to pay for his crime of MURDER!!

  26. Someone this terrified of a car full of girls — why go outside in the first place?
    For that matter, why do you continue to live at all if the world terrifies you that much?

  27. A paranoid old white man ♂️ says it all 🤬

  28. Isn’t it funny how the white women getting shot immediately overshadows the black child getting shot for the same thing

  29. Should have made sure they were black.

  30. Funny nobody's protesting for this young white lady.. where are all the protesters from where the black kid got shot o yeah they only care about white people killing black people which tells you they are so full of s***!!
