Prosecutors seek to jail Miami mom for posting news stories about cop who shot son

Calling her “an inherent danger to the community,” prosecutors on Friday asked a Miami judge to throw a 51-year-old mother back into jail for posting news articles on Facebook recounting her arrest on charges of stalking a Miami-Dade police officer who had shot and killed her mentally ill son.

Prosecutors say Gamaly Hollisviolated a judge’s order against using social media by sharing several stories this week about the June 2022 death of her son. Richard Hollis, who suffered from severe mental illness, was shot six times by Officer Jaime Pino in the family’s apartment. Pino, during a call for help at the home a year earlier, had warned her that he would kill her son if he ever brandished a gun at officers.

Gamaly Hollis had no arrest record until the aftermath of her son’s death, when the grieving mother took to the streets and the internet, calling officer Pino a killer and once confronting him at a crime scene. Miami-Dade Police arrested her on charges of aggravated stalking, resisting arrest and trespassing. After a year in jail, she was released on bond just a week ago.

Now, she now faces jail again — this time simply for sharing news stories, without comment, on Facebook.

We're being set up. A fascist president as king, backed by an unaccountable police regime.
