2 men plead guilty to manslaughter in 2018 Roxbury slaying that killed Revere father

Ugh I'm so glad they finally got some closure with this sentencing . 15 years is still way too long but at least the two guys are gonna pay for what they did . It's crazy how these guys were able to plead guilty after going through all those mistrials... like, what even happened there? But anyway, I feel bad for Mervin's family, especially that little girl who won't get to know her dad . Her mom's statement was super powerful and emotional . It just goes to show how a life can be taken away in an instant and the impact it has on loved ones .

another case where the justice system fails its citizens... i mean think about alexander mervin, just trying to clean out his car and ended up getting caught in the middle of two thugs who thought they could take whatever they wanted. 15 years for what? 2 guys carrying a firearm without a license should get more time if u ask me

This is still so sad... a young dad with a little one who'll grow up without him... 15 years in prison isn't much considering the pain they caused . I feel for the mom and her family, she's been through so much . The courts are trying to do justice, but it's never gonna bring back anyone who was taken too soon

I mean, 15 years in prison doesn't seem like enough considering what happened to Alex Mervin's family . Seven years already served by these guys and now they get an extra 5-6 years added on top? It just feels like the system is kinda slow-moving when it comes to justice for victims and their loved ones . I'm not saying they deserved to die, but the fact that Jerion Moore and Nicholas Sicellon got two-year sentences for carrying a gun without a license while Mervin got shot multiple times seems pretty unfair . And what about all those years of court drama and mistrials? It's like, just get to a verdict already!
