A video from the United States showing the power of forgiveness has gone viral after shooting victim Botham Jean’s brother addressed the woman who killed his brother, policewoman Amber Guyger, who has just been sentenced to ten years in jail as a punishment for her crime.
The video shows Bertrum Jean telling Guyger that he forgives her, doesn’t want her to go to jail, and urging her to turn to Christ.
He then asks the judge for permission to hug her.
