Bibbs initially claimed that Brielle had fallen out of her car seat, but later confessed to repeatedly dropping and hitting the child, causing multiple fractures and severe head trauma. During the trial, Assistant District Attorney Keaton Forcht alleged that Bibbs had committed the crime because the baby’s father had ended their relationship.

“Bibbs deserved a life sentence for what she did to her child. She beat her countless times and seemed to care about as much about the death of her daughter as she did about the life of her daughter.” Forcht said.  Ogg however noted, “Our office stands up for all victims, but a baby is the most innocent of victims. We believed that a life sentence was appropriate for this brutal murder and a Harris County jury agreed.”

I don’t fear death, I can sacrifice my life for justice

I don’t fear death, I can sacrifice my life for justice

Nigerian hip-pop artist Falz has shared the  reason why he sings controversial songs while addressing sensitive topics. Falz Recall that Falz dropped a song and called out INEC, its chairman and other political parties over the recent general elections conduct. He accused them for allegedly involved in the electoral malpractices in the just-concluded general elections. He emphasized that he is not scared to die by speaking the truth hence the type of lyrics he uses for his songs. Speaking about why he released a controversial song like that, Falz in an interview with Arise Tv said that he would rather go down fighting for justice than to remain silent and die from the failed system of the country. He said, “I knew that was going to come up when you announced that I was doing this from London. Like I said earlier on, this is not the first time, this is not the second time, this is not the third time. “I have released tons of records that are very confrontational. And I was on ground. I’m always on ground when I released these records. “It is not to say that I’m running anywhere. Absolutely not. Everyone know where to find me. If anyone wants to find me. But I have no reason to fear anything. And I always say this when people ask me ‘how do you do these things without any fear of consequences?’ “And this is the same answer that I always give: the kind of life we are living already is one which we are more or less fading away already. It’s not a meaningful life what we have in Nigeria as a country. “What’s the worst that could happen? It’s death. I don’t fear death. I would rather go down fighting for a just cause. I would rather be remembered as someone that lived a life that was meaningful rather than someone that for example was walking down the road and got run over by a danfo [bus] because he was driving recklessly. “Or, someone that got a heart disease and could not save himself because there are no hospitals capable of saving him in Nigeria,” Falz added.
