A 19 year old Chicago woman who live-streamed the racially charged kidnapping, torture and mutilation of a mentaly disabled teen was given 200 hours of community service and four years of probation on Friday.
Brittany Herring Covington – who went by “Herring” on Social Media before her arreest, and “Covington” in recent reports, avoided a possible 33 years in prison on multiple counts, including a hate crime, aggravated battery and aggravated kidnapping – a charge which was dropped along with several others as part of a plea agreement.

Cook County Circuit Judge William Hooks handed down the slap on the wrist to Covington, who pleaded guilty to a hate crime, aggravated battery and intimidation charges – telling the teen that he could have sent her to prison, but told her “I’m not sure if I did that you’d be coming out any better.”

Hooks warned Covington that should she violate the terms of her probation – which includes a ban from social media for four years, she would face prison time. As part of the plea deal, prosecutors agreed to drop additional charges including kidnapping.
Judge William Hooks, Cook County IL
“Do not mess this up,” Judge Hooks said to Covington, who stood in front of him in a blue jumpsuit. Hooks is notably the first African-American president of Chicago’s Federal Bar Association, a past president of the Cook County Bar Association, and a member of the Muslim Bar Association of Chicago.

The brutal attack took place in early January, after four black Chicago teens kidnapped the mentally disabled white teen and held him captive for nearly two days – binding his hands and feet with duct tape and gagging him with a sock, before using a knife to cut and stab the victim while laughing, shouting racial slurs and issuing death threats. In one segment of the livestreamed attack, one of the females can be seen laughing as she punches the victim. At another point, one of the male attackers wraps a cord around the victim’s neck while he groaned in pain, and in another a male approaches the victim with a knife and asks the others “Should I shank his ass?” Other notable quotes include:
“Fuck Donald Trump, Fuck white people”
“There’s gonna be a murder. Pop pop pop”
“We gonna put this bitch in the trunk, put a brick on the gas, like aaaaaaaaah”
“Pistol whip his ass, fool“
After nearly 48 hours, the kidnapped teen escaped after the kidnappers left the apartment to confront a neighbor who had called 911 to complain about the noise coming out of their apartment where the torture was taking place.
The video, which can be seen here, or here immediately went viral. After the teens were arrested, Chicago PD initially said it was not racially motivated, despite it clearly being a hate crime. Jordan Hill, 18, of Carpentersville; Tesfaye Cooper, 18, of Chicago; and Brittany Herring’s sister Tanishia, 24, were each charged with aggravated kidnapping, hate crimes, aggravated unlawful restraint and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.
After her arrest, Brittany Herring Covington bragged on Facebook from a smart phone she was able to sneak into jail, posting “yall mad?” and “Sittin in dis cell on my celly talking to yall trippin. Erbody got phones in her these day,” and typing “Tfse” which stands for “The Funniest Shit Ever.”
And for her participation in the brutal crime, Herring-Covington only received 200 hours of community service and four years of probation. Meanwhile, a Broward County, Florida man who vandalized a Mosque and left bacon inside was sentenced to 15 years in prison last week.
The three other kidnappers charged along with Herring-Covington are still awaiting trial. Perhaps Judge Hooks will give them the key to the city.
They’re begging white people to go ape.
The only positive to come out of this, and the trend I’m starting to see, is printing the judges name and photograph with the stories. I’ve been an advocate of this, and have done a lot of it myself for years. Make those m************ at least somewhat accountable. I always got sick of the press saying “a federal judge” did this or that. They’ve got a name, they’ve got a face. “You might not be better when you come out”, says the judge. What a load of crap. He has a chance to kill two birds with one stone. Put her away for 20 years, not to make her a better citizen, but to punish her for her crimes. And taking her off the street for her reproductive years would be an additional benefit to society. You failed us judge cue ball.
Yeah, well, maybe next time she’ll crawl down a hotel hallway.
Abduct and torture a negro and the world is your lunch mob, abduct and torture a white guy and get a free pass. Unfuckingbelievable.
I doubt she will be without her Obama Phone and face book or snap chat for long and nothing will come from it .
These animals are loose in every city in America now thanks to the lack of real hands on parenting and often times the good book upside the head . These sub humans have no capacity to distinguish good bad right or wrong and they typically view mercy or leniency as a weakness for them to exploit . The lock that is not locked etc… !
I recall the steelworkers kid who was caught screwing around and disrespecting authority in school . The administration called his father at work and requested him to come to the school ASAP . Dad left work got to the school and listened to the teacher and principal then turned to his son and asked : Is what they just said true ?
The teenage boy only knew 2 words ,YES SIR ! With that the father hoisted the boy out of the chair slammed his ass against the wall smacked him then sat his ass back in the chair with a thud . Dad then asked the boy : this won’t happen again will it ? “NO SIR , I am sorry SIR ! Father turned to the 2 administrators and said he will not give you any more trouble ! The adminstrators were shocked in disbelief and replied : Mr ____ we did not expect such a display of harsh treatment ! Dad replied : then what the fuck did you call me for !
That father is dead now but the boy went on to be modestly successful in life And Is now retired and I meet with him and a bunch from high school once a month for a sandwhich and a beer .
Our parents were not abusive , they just made sure we got the message that the punishment will fit the crime .
A life’s lesson the judge in this case should heed !
“I’m not sure if I did that you’d be coming out any better.”
That seems to me that he is recognizing she isn’t going to change and will continue to be a threat to others while she is out but doesn’t care that she is.
How is she going to ‘come out any better’ once she figures out there is no REAL punishment?
Most states have for profit prison systems. Not only are they paid more for each bed filled, they farm the less violent ones out for labor. Now, if you want productive labor who are you going to get more for your buck for? : trash like this that never worked a day in her life? Or a housewife/young person/someone who has worked who made mistake and will be more cooperative and productive with promise of time reduced or special attention.
For ghetto thugs like this, prison isnt much different than the hellhole she was raised in.
Explains the 3 felonies a day and increase in the police state.
Please explain how the state was wronged in this savage attack.
It seems they MUST have been wronged as the case brought was “the people/the state versus group of black low-lifes”….right??? There is a REAL VICTIM here….and its NOT THE STATE or “the people.”
By WHAT RIGHT does a prosecutor get to allow a “plea bargain” of ANY SORTS?? This victim requires RESTITUTION. That may take the form of ALL FUTURE INCOME from this bottom feeder and her worthless subhuman friends, or any of a number of possible things that will attempt to make the victim “whole” again. But it most certainly will NOT come through some bullshit community service act.
When we ALLOW the government to maintain the monopoly on “justice” in our society, THIS is what we get. All of you who think that ONLY government can be “trusted” with this most critical aspect of our society need only look at this crap, the murder of the innocent father in the hallway by the subhuman cop, the complete insanity of the innocent verdict in the illegal immigrant murder in S.F., and the literally thousands upon thousands of heinous injustices at the hands of police, government prosecutors, judges, and the rest of the government-run monopoly “justice” system to see that they have FAILED completely as always.
“I’m not sure if I did that you’d be coming out any better.”
She came out wrong the moment her mother gave birth.
I’d like to have her in my presence; first cut off her nose…. lesson learned?
Nose and whatever comes with it.
Black privilege doesn’t exist…. Bwaaaahaa
DAD SHOULD WAIT A WHILE THEN HUNT DOWN THE JUDGE AND EDUCATE HIM ABOUT JUSTICE.

I hope whites wake up before its too late . Its time for another civil wr I hope it gets triggered sooner than later. as far as this nig slut cunt I hope she gets a bullet in a drive by.
Clearly they got to the judge… told him if he aint careful he gon git got. They know how power works.
“…. a screaming, shameless, blatant, and pervasive bias and double-standard. Whenever whites are the perpetrators (real or imagined; in the former, Duke Lacrosse hoax and in latter, the Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman case; remember also Michael Brown and Freddie Gray), the media is on the case like a school of piranhas on a freshly stabbed mammal. The outcries, the uproar, the demonstrations, the demands for a speedy trial, the shouts of “no justice, no peace,” the blocking of roads and other public pathways, the chants that certain lives matter, and on some occasions, the riots… an unmistakable mosaic of reminders that America, 50 years after the final phase of the Civil Rights Movement, still needs to have an honest conversation about race.
However, when the roles are reversed, the silence is appalling.
As I read those pages, I encountered case after case, with detailed descriptions, of blacks victimizing whites. Women, children, senior citizens – either assaulted, raped, murdered, or a combination. Tourists, shot and killed. Women minding their own business, beaten unconscious. Young adults, beaming with life, physically beautiful, in the prime of young adulthood… their lives literally terminated, for the pettiest of reasons (if not an absence of reasons altogether). The “knockout game,” which has also targeted and killed nonwhites (Asians). The Wichita Massacre. The kidnapping, torture, rape, sodomy, and murder of Hugh Christopher Newsom and Channon Christian. Blacks who are not doing badly in life and who have no criminal record killing whites because of exposure to anti-white hatred in liberal campuses. Riots in county fairs, where dozens of black youths would suddenly swarm and begin collective mayhem, punching, kicking, and beating any and every white person in sight. A white special needs boy barely over 18 with his scalp sliced open, beaten, forced to drink toilet water, by 4 blacks who giggle and laugh and insult his race.
….
In the same way, the perpetrators of these racist crimes and their leftist defenders – whether black or white – who appeal to “understanding” because many of these criminals were born/raised in poverty, were victims of abuse, came from broken homes, believe in different standards, etc. are pushing many heretofore neutral observers to become their enemies. And here is the irony which both the feminist women and their male comrades in my past as well as the leftist apologists for these lopsided statistics of savagery fail to see: in their activist fervor, rather than neutralizing or converting those who questioned them, they have instead multiplied the ranks of those who will oppose them.
If these apologists/and or the media gave white victims equal time all the time, I speculate much of the dormant but simmering animus would never have been generated, or at least not to the extent I perceive it to be at.”

I wrote all this on February 8, on a post entitled “Ferals on Full Bellies,” which was about Karina Vetrano.
If the 3 other teens – the ones who physically tortured that young man – get considerable prison sentences, then much anger will abate. But if not – what I wrote above, and what was written on the very first comment, should be remembered.
Leftists, ever guardians of their narratives and so often very selective with their outrage and with facts, do not seem to understand the potential backlash of what they do. The alt-right (which I am not a member of), Trump’s victory, the rise of ultra-conservative groups in Europe after the Muslim migrant invasion… there is ALWAYS blowback.
