A disgusting human being gets what he deserves.
After trying to squirm his way out of a severe sentence for his brutal gay bashing of Jimmy Lee Dean by saying he would claim he was “a faggot, too,” Jimmy Singleton was sentenced to 75 years in prison:
A Dallas County jury Thursday sentenced a man who shouted slurs as he brutally beat a gay man to 75 years in prison.
That’s 15 years more than prosecutors requested and more than twice the sentence of his accomplice.
The July 2008 attack by Bobby Singleton and another man in Oak Lawn [Dallas] left Jimmy Dean with a broken back, facial disfigurement, no sense of smell and ongoing pain. They punched and stomped Dean at gunpoint and then stole his lighter, pocket knife and wallet.
Singleton said he and his friend Jonathan Gunter, who was sentenced to 30 years in prison, did not attack Dean because he was gay. But in his confession to police, Singleton had said: “We figured they would be easier targets because [there] are a lot of homosexuals around the area.”
On the witness stand, Singleton said that he and Gunter went to Oak Lawn because “we figured they wouldn’t put up as much of a fight.”
He also defended his use of the word “faggot,” saying that was a word you would say to anyone during a fight.
After the verdict, most jurors stood in a receiving line of sorts to hug Dean and his friends.
