Billy Ray Turner Sentencing

Billy Ray Turner, the man convicted of killing former NBA star Lorenzen Wright, is scheduled to be sentenced on additional charges Friday.

I LOVE the way Lorenzen's mother LOVED HER SON! She never gave up on finding her sons killers nor did she EVER suppress how she felt about him.

[@jazzyjack9883]

I know her pain my Son was murdered in 2016 and I did not stop until that got the person that cowardly shot my Son. 6 weeks after his murder that had hs ass. If I wasn't calling I was visiting the homicide unit.

[@OdellHarden]

Her love didn't make Jimmy tell where the gun was..

[@cmn4223]

Sherra should have got the same sentence, it was absolutely horrific what they did to that young man and all for some money smh god bless his children hopefully they recover from the terrible trauma their mother caused them

[@cheryleb6732]

What will a man profit if he gained the whole world but lost his soul 💔 😔 🤔😥✍🏾🤷🏾‍♀️ like the Judge said I know he hates he ever met Sherra Wright, but @ the N of a day we are responsible far our own actions 🙄

[@8td8tr]

They most likely will take sides with their mother.

[@kimgale262]

@@8td8tr Sadly they do and spoke up for her at her first parole hearing. I truly hope that this trial has opened up their eyes, because they didn't know all the information that came out in this trial because their mother took a plea deal so that she could get a lesser sentence.

[@8td8tr]

@@kimgale262 They love their mother and I understand that but she is the sole reason Lorenzen was killed.

@@8td8tr I agree with you 100%. She is an evil despicable woman.

Wish there were more judges like this awesome judge ❤

Thank you so much for covering the sentencing and sharing the footage!!! Rip for Ren.

[@gwendellaj8449]

Here to see Ms. Marion get justice. I'm glad she was at least able to get justice although nothing is more important to having Lorenzo here. I'll never get the image out of my head of her trying to run to her son's body and I'm glad they stopped her because no Mother should see their child like that.

[@wandarobinson1658]

I cannot believe that he is just now getting sentenced...

[@MsLadyT1246]

They always take long but she should have gotten more time because she plan everything she know that man didn't owe drug dealer.

[@kimgale262]

God bless Lorenzen's mother. RIP Lorenzen. I hope that this trial has opened Lorenzen's children's eyes to what an evil person their mother is and they stop trying to speak up for her at her parole hearings. She is an evil despicable thing.

[@8td8tr]

Yes she is a real evil selfish person. There was no immediate need for her to have him set up to get killed just for some insurance money what a pitiful shame he had to lose his life at the hands of this despicable woman.

[@dudemorris7769]

@@8td8trand for them to be considering giving Sherra parole after 3 years on a 30 year sentence is ridiculous and disgusting!

[@MsLadyT1246]

She took a plea deal because she didn't want her children to know everything's she did she wanted them to believe that their father was sell drugs. At the parole hearings she still didn't take responsibility for her action she feel like she did nothing wrong and she lied to the detective from the beginning. Burn in hell she need to do all of her time and wait on the Karma because it coming it ain't over this woman lost her son. For insurance money. Period

[@lifelonglearner4532]

Exactly 💯

[@LisaPettigen]

Best truthful comment ❤

[@psmith4996]

I pray that she never gets granted parole and she serves every minute of the 30 years she was sentenced to. I think a plea bargain is a cop out but that's the justice system.

Who’s “we”?.. So much unnecessary hate you could not get time to prove read what you wrote…it’s “not”

Lorenzen’s mom is a real one 100%

[@wandarobinson1658]

Why doesn't he have a microphone?

[@kingdubbs143]

What I keep thinking is how could you kill your own baby daddy? Ok yeah. I understand me and my girl gets into arguments all day everyday. But to kill your own child father. That is just pure insanity. She clearly had some kind of mental problem or was on some heavy drugs. I mean then this guy was an NBA GREAT.

[@sunshyneladi4836]

…meanwhile Shera got 30 years🤬. She played BRT.😔

[@lovemalika]

She should have a life sentence, she's the one who wanted him dead and planned the murder. I hope she serves all 30 years.

[@kimgale262]

Sadly yes and fortunately she got denied release at her first parole hearing the other day.

[@LisaPettigen]

She can never escape God's judgement.

[@averyfisher9967]

I don’t blame this judge, because you don’t know whose telling the truth. I believe it was Sherra, and her cousin! After hearing his lengthy wrap sheet, this guy either has bad luck, or he is a very bad person 😳

[@westernhemisphere2205]

Even if he ever does go up for parole they'll never let him out

Praying for all their hearts to heal 🙏❤️🙏

[@crgarner8914]

What you shared I know to be the past truth. However the kids were kept away from their grandmother was their mothers ill-willed choice. Oddly their mother had good things to say about their grandmother. Even if the mother/son wasn't involved within each other's life, it was still her son/his mother and there's no evidence they disowned each other.
