Ocala, Florida —Ajike “AJ” Owens was nothing short of amazing, she had a heart of gold that resonated with everyone she came into contact with.  As a restaurant manager and a beloved single mother of four children- 12-year-old Issac, 10-year-old Israel, 7-year-old Africa and 3-year-old Titus. AJ was a loving mother who went out of her way to protect her children and to raise her children to be kind and respectful towards everyone. 

AJ and her children lived in a neighborhood that was plagued by a neighborhood bully– 58-year-old Susan Lorincz who lived next to an open field where the children would play.  

In the course of a year, Susan Lorincz made dozens of 911 calls complaining about the noise level and accusing the children of trespassing onto her property. Susan would often scream at the children, calling them racial slurs and other expletives. 

On June 2, 2023, tensions would boil over when Susan became so upset by the noise level of the children that she threw a rollerblade skate, striking one of the children in the foot. When one of the kids told his mother - AJ Owens, she confronted Susan at her home about the mistreatment of the children, what would happen next would put the controversial Florida Stand Your Ground Law at the center of national news as one suspect claimed self-defense. 

Listen to Season 5 Episode 3 to find out how this heartbreaking case unfolds. 

Rest in peace to Ajike “AJ Owens” and condolences to her four children, family and friends. 🙏🕊️
