WRIGHT, SHERRA: Commercial Appeal online - People Magazine Investigates TV -
She pleaded guilty for the sake of her children, Sherra Wright told the Commercial Appeal Thursday afternoon.
And the six children are standing by their mother, said Loren Wright, the oldest daughter of Sherra and NBA star and Memphian Lorenzen Wright.
‘I never thought I’d see myself being charged with a murder or any of that, but I do understand that the lifestyle that I was living – or the lifestyle I was pulled into pretty much – this is one of the things that the type of lifestyle brings about: Murder, death, demise,’ Sherra Wright said. ‘So many different things I could say. Wickedness, evil, lies, secrecy, abuse.’
Earlier that day, Wright pleaded guilty to the charge of facilitating murder in the first degree for her role in Lorenzen Wright’s 2010 killing. Commercial appeal online article 10 December 2019
