Convicted murderer of lottery winner seeks retrial

The woman who was found guilty of killing Florida Lottery winner Abraham Shakespeare has asked for a fresh trial in an effort to commute her life sentence. In 2012, the offender, now 50, was convicted of first-degree murder and having a pistol in her possession and discharged on December 10 after being accused by the prosecution of defrauding Shakespeare, who had won $30 million in the lottery and received around $12 million after taxes, and killing him. The perpetrator presented an amended motion in an effort to change her sentence after filing a motion for post-conviction relief in 2017. She uses the argument that her trial counsel was ineffective as support.
 
Hmn!. Wonders shall never end. I don't understand her motive in seeking retrial of this case after she had been found guilty of the offense. Well, since the matter is before court, it is now left for the court to decide. I reserved my comments on this.
