Seems like she took her frustration out on the wrong people.
The people looking after mother that neglected her care would have been better targets. Lawyers for the police seem far from the source of the problem, but then they were likely stopping her from getting her reparations check.
Yeah, wrong targets. She should have thought that through. Definitely people need to go to jail for what they did to her mother though. That’s beyond sick. I hope this bullshit does not result in this abuse being swept under the rug.

Well since her mother was placed under guardianship back in 2024, it's pretty obvious that her daughter wasn't concerned with her care. I've personally seen cases where the children let the health of their parents diminish to the point that someone else notices and calls Adult Protective Services. Old people DO NOT heal quickly. When the parent ends up in a facility the kids come and complain that they are not being properly taken care of.
Gwendolyn White Arrested After Shooting Two Attorneys Outside Wake County Courthouse
Gwendolyn White, 57, the woman who spent more than a year and half calling out the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) and Wake County Adult Protective Services of allegedly allowing her 90-year-old mother to die from severe neglect and abuse while under state guardianship, was arrested Friday after allegedly shooting two attorneys outside the Wake County Courthouse.
According to Raleigh Police, White, was in court for a hearing in a civil case including Rolesville Police Department when the incident occurred. Police say she became belligerent during the proceeding, left the courthouse, retrieved a gun from her vehicle, and opened fire on two attorneys who had been representing Rolesville PD.
Both attorneys, Mary K. Harris and Jeffrey R. Whitley, of Fox Rothschild, a national law firm with offices in Raleigh, were shot and wounded.
White was taken into custody at the scene and now faces attempted murder charges.
White has repeatedly called out the State of North Carolina, DHHS, and Rolesville Police over the treatment and eventual death of her mother, Elleen Abrom White.
Gwendolyn White’s Long Fight Against NC DHHS and Guardianship:
Gwendolyn White has been one of the most vocal critics of how North Carolina handled her mother’s care. Elleen Abrom White, born in 1935, died on May 13, 2025, at the age of 90.
According to Gwendolyn’s public statements, social media posts, and fundraising efforts, her mother was placed under the guardianship of Wake County DHHS Adult Protective Services in late 2024. She claims her mother was moved to Oxford Universal Healthcare & Rehab Nursing, now known as Oxford Health and Rehabilitation Center, where she suffered extreme neglect.
Gwendolyn has alleged that her mother developed more than 30 open bedsores, was left lying in urine and feces, and was only given food and water when staff knew she was coming to visit. She has repeatedly stated that a wound care provider told her that someone poured acid into her mother’s open wounds, causing additional horrific injuries.
She has also claimed that her mother suffered from multiple infections, starvation, and dehydration while under state guardianship, and that she was blocked from properly advocating for her mother for nearly eight months.
Gwendolyn has directly blamed NC DHHS and the appointed guardian for failing to protect her mother, going as far as calling her mother’s death a result of neglect and systemic failure by the State of North Carolina.
In addition to the nursing home and guardianship allegations, Gwendolyn has long claimed that she and her mother were poisoned with arsenic and faced years of harassment in the Rolesville area. She has accused Rolesville Police of refusing to investigate these incidents properly.
On Friday, Gwendolyn White appeared in Wake County court for a hearing in her case against Rolesville Police. According to Raleigh Police Chief Rico Boyce, she became agitated during the hearing.
After leaving the courtroom, White allegedly went to her vehicle, got a handgun, and returned to shoot Harris and Whitley as they exited the old Wake County Courthouse on Fayetteville Street around 10:30 a.m.
Both victims were struck multiple times. One attorney required surgery, while the other was listed in stable condition.
White was arrested at the scene. She is currently facing two counts of attempted murder.
A Mother’s Death and a Daughter’s Public Battle
For months, Gwendolyn White used social media to document what she described as the horrific final months of her mother’s life. She shared photos she said were taken at the funeral home showing the extent of the bedsores and repeatedly called out both the nursing home and Wake County DHHS for what she believes was deadly neglect.
She has framed her legal fight against Rolesville Police as part of her broader effort to hold the State of North Carolina accountable for her mother’s death.
Holy smoke. If you are going to be unjust you are going to pay. This woman k ows she will be prosecuted and got to prison for the rest ofher life and she is resolved to do it without complaint. What do the government oppressors think is going to happen when nobody gives any relief. This sadly wont be the last because lawyers and judges have been covered for and people are sick of it.
Gwendolyn White, a 57-year-old Black woman, was charged with attempted murder after shooting two Fox Rothschild attorneys representing Rolesville police outside the Wake County Courthouse in Raleigh on May 22, 2026, following a civil hearing on a four-year-old case involving body camera footage from her mother's death.
The female attorney, Mary Harris, is in critical condition after surgery while the male attorney, Jeffrey Whitley, is stable; White reportedly became belligerent in court, retrieved a gun from her vehicle, and fired in an alley as they exited.
No. This is what happens when justice is not rendered. Her mother was tortured under court mandated state care. When nobody listens or helps. She isnt very bright to bring attemtion to it thosnway, but shenhas been effective. Lawyers are the people who went after trump remember.
The likely reason she shot the attorneys and not the despicable 'caregivers' is she was looking to cash out on mom's death, and the attorney's were doing something that threatened her winning the wrongful death lottery.
And it is also highly likely the worthless caregivers looked just like her.
Im curious as to her motive? Were these attorneys part of some rail roading she was getting. Lately the states attorneies have been viscious in some places and really punishing people before theyve even been found guilty. Hate to saynit but the government agents have been abusi g their power lately. In case people forget how judges let murderers out, went after trump, j6s etc. They use theirnpositions to satisfy their own biasies. Could this be someone who was affected by thst?

I am wondering how often she was visiting her mother? Surely she would have been able to see things were not right. I don't know.
The whole thing is wrong and terribly sad.

Edit: Warning - pics are graphic and just plain horrible:
These aren’t the people that I would have went after if it was my mother. A little bit of background, best I could find at the moment. https://www.thechatwithmisshollywood.com/post/wheww-hunnii-north-carolina-family-wants-answers-and-accountability-in-the-death-of-a-beloved-mo

Oh my goodness, that poor woman! She must have suffered so much, that is horrendous 😢😡 No one should ever be treated like that!
That was my exact thought.
thanks for sharing, everyone is so quick to accuse this woman. If i was on her jury I would vote not guilty. this is HORRIFIC
I think we’re so used to being attacked that we have a knee jerk reaction to almost everything.

Is this what happens when a race feels it is entitled??
No, you should see what they did to her mother. WTF look above.
Exactly.
and a sex feels it is entitled
No. This is what happens when justice is not rendered. Her mother was tortured under court mandated state care. When nobody listens or helps. She isnt very bright to bring attemtion to it thosnway, but shenhas been effective. Lawyers are the people who went after trump remember.
This woman didn't give a shit about her mother.
The likely reason she shot the attorneys and not the despicable 'caregivers' is she was looking to cash out on mom's death, and the attorney's were doing something that threatened her winning the wrongful death lottery.
And it is also highly likely the worthless caregivers looked just like her.
Why the attorneys? That makes absolutely no sense.
What the shooter did was natural. This is what happens when there is no justice.
Im curious as to her motive? Were these attorneys part of some rail roading she was getting. Lately the states attorneies have been viscious in some places and really punishing people before theyve even been found guilty. Hate to saynit but the government agents have been abusi g their power lately.
