Florida AG Torches Soros-Style DA for Slapping 18-Year-Old Killer with Just 4 Years [WATCH]

Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier criticized Orange and Osceola County State Attorney Monique Worrell over what he described as a repeated pattern of lenient plea deals and reduced sentences for violent offenders in Florida’s Ninth Judicial Circuit.

During remarks addressing sentencing practices in the circuit, Uthmeier argued that Florida law prioritizes punishment for violent offenders, but said Worrell’s office has repeatedly failed to uphold that standard.

“I’m Attorney General James Uthmeier, Florida, law is clear that the primary purpose of sentencing is to punish the offender and that rehabilitation is subordinate to the goal of punishment,” Uthmeier said.

“But in Florida’s ninth Judicial Circuit, the law does not appear to be the mandate state Attorney Monique Worrell is giving violent criminals and murderers who have no business being in our community youthful offender status,” Uthmeier added.

Uthmeier cited several cases that he said demonstrated what he called an ongoing pattern of reduced charges and favorable plea agreements for violent offenders.

“For example, Marcus Anderson, who was 18 years old when he was indicted by a grand jury for first degree murder and robbery with a firearm and should have been eligible for the death penalty, had his charges downgraded to second degree murder and given only four years in prison,” Uthmeier said.

He also referenced the case of Ya CL LeBron Flores, who he said caused a fatal crash while driving a stolen vehicle without a license.

“Ya CL LeBron Flores ran a ran a red light in a stolen car without a license, and killed an innocent man returning home from work,” Uthmeier said.

According to Uthmeier, Flores faced significantly more prison time before receiving a plea deal through Worrell’s office.

“He was facing 15 years in prison, but Worrell’s office agreed to another sweetheart deal, and he will serve fewer than six years,” Uthmeier said.

Uthmeier also highlighted the case of Julian Vincent, who was charged with possessing child sex abuse material involving infants and toddlers.

“Julian Vincent was charged with 25 counts of unlawful possession of child sex abuse material, material showing the rape and torture of infants and toddlers, scoring more than 27 years in prison,” Uthmeier said.

Despite the severity of the allegations, Uthmeier said Vincent avoided prison entirely after being granted youthful offender status.

“But Vincent won’t serve a single day in prison because Worrell’s office stood by as he was given youthful offender status, unopposed,” Uthmeier said.

Uthmeier then discussed the case of Savion Lambert, who he said received probation for a violent carjacking offense despite possessing a weapon.

“And most recently, her office agreed to a plea deal with Savion Lambert,” Uthmeier said. “Lambert, while in possession of a weapon, committed a carjacking, but was allowed probation, yes, as a youthful offender.”

According to Uthmeier, Lambert later faced manslaughter charges after allegedly shooting and killing Carlos Perez while on probation.

“While Lambert was out on probation, he was arrested for manslaughter after shooting and killing Carlos Perez,” Uthmeier said.

Uthmeier described Lambert’s actions following the shooting and criticized the plea deal currently being pursued by Worrell’s office.

“Lambert claimed it was an accident, but only after dumping Perez’s body out of the car driving down the road to throw the firearm out of his vehicle and returning to the scene momentarily, only to run and hide,” Uthmeier said.

According to Uthmeier, the victim’s family opposes the proposed plea agreement.

“Worrell’s office is asking the court to approve a plea deal, a deal the victim’s family opposes, that will result in Lambert spending only 20 years in prison,” Uthmeier said.

Uthmeier argued stronger accountability measures are necessary and accused Worrell of repeatedly failing to properly prosecute dangerous criminals.

“But that’s not enough,” Uthmeier said. “There must be legitimate accountability. There must be punishment.”

He concluded by calling for an end to what he described as a broader pattern of leniency toward violent offenders in the Ninth Judicial Circuit.

“Monique Worrell’s misjudgments are far too numerous, and her conduct is not beyond oversight by the state or the public,” Uthmeier said.

“State Attorney Worrell’s obvious pattern or practice of leniency on violent and deadly criminals must end,” Uthmeier added.
