Answer to question: Why did the Hiccup Girl plead not guilty to murder? Jennifer Mee gained notoriety as the "Hiccup Girl," as a teenager but a few years later she faced a charge of murder after being a party to a fatal mugging where her male companion pulled the trigger. Under Florida law all participants in a fatal robbery are equally guilty of murder. there was no intent to murder and Jennifer did not deny that she was involved but it did not change the fact that she was guilty under Florida law. Jennifer was offered a plea bargain but this was rejected and she defended the charge on the advice of her lawyer who himself gained a lot of publicity due to this very public case. There is a campaign to free Jennifer or at least give her a reduced sentence due to the many mitigating circumstances surrounding this case. How can you help?
