Kayla Rae Norton and Jose Ismael Torres have now been sentenced after they went around Paulding and Douglas counties in a pick-up truck sporting a number of Confederate flags. The couple stopped at the birthday party of a 8-year-old in their pickup truck with their flag parading it around. They said racial slurs and even pointed a shotgun at the people in attendance, threatening to kill people at the event.
Jose Ismael Torres was sentenced to 20 years, 13 of which will be served in prison, for aggravated assault, street gang terrorism, and terroristic threats. Kayla Rae Norton received 15 years, with six being served behind bars, for terroristic threats and street gang terrorism.
Douglas County Superior Court Judge William McClain said,
“If you drive around town with a Confederate flag, yelling the ‘N’ word, you know how it’s going to be interpreted.It’s inexplicable to me that you weren’t arrested by the police that day.”
