There is FINALLY #JusticeForJohn.
On Monday afternoon, news broke that Terry Thompson was convicted of first-degree murder in the choking death of John Hernandez, who died in 2017 after Thompson, the husband of a deputy sheriff in the Houston area, pinned Hernandez at a local Denny’s and eventually killed him. The video of the killing went viral.
The Facebook page of Justice for John Hernandez ran a Facebook Live about the conviction.
