A Florida woman whose case has drawn national attention over alleged racial bias has been freed on bail pending her upcoming trial. Marissa Alexander, an African-American mother of three, was sentenced to 20 years in prison for firing a warning shot at a wall near her abusive husband. Alexander’s sentence drew comparisons to George Zimmerman’s acquittal for the killing of Trayvon Martin. A Florida appeals court ordered a new trial earlier this year, saying the jury for her case received faulty instructions. On Wednesday night, the eve of Thanksgiving, Alexander was released on more than $200,000 bond. She will remain under house arrest until her new trial begins in March.
