   KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A man who blamed slavery and racism for his   
   plight in life will die in prison after being sentenced to   
   consecutive life sentences for raping and killing his teenage   
   daughter.   
      
   A Jackson County judge sentenced Jerry Bausby, 43, to consecutive   
   life sentences for the March 21, 2016, murder of his daughter,   
   Daizsa.   
      
   Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker had asked the judge to   
   hand down the maximum sentences after Jerry was convicted in July by   
   a jury on one count of second-degree murder as well as one count   
   each of sodomy, incest and sexual abuse in the first degree.   
      
   Bausby, 18, was a senior at the Kansas City Public School District's   
   Southwest Early College Campus/Early College Academy when she was   
   found dead in a room at the Four Acre Motel in the 8200 block of   
   Hickman Mills Drive in Kansas City, Missouri.   
      
   Police linked Jerry to the killing through DNA evidence.   
      
   Several people, including her sister, LaKendra Bausby, testified   
   during Jerry's sentencing. LaKendra told the judge that she and her   
   sister had tough lives, according to a news release from the Jackson   
   County Prosecutor's Office.   
      
   "She wanted to prove to the world that she was worthy of being   
   loved," LaKendra said in court. "She didn't deserve what Jerry did   
   to her."   
      
   Daizsa was a star at her school, active in cheerleading and the   
   performing arts, according to a news release from the school at the   
   time of her death.   
      
   "She was an inspiration,'' Southwest Principal Earl Williams said in   
   a May statement. "She was a mentor to all of our kids through the   
   activities she was involved with and as they move forward, they will   
   remember her spirit and wisdom.''   
      
   Jerry spoke for 45 minutes, mentioning his daughter only once and   
   blaming "racism and what he viewed as slavery in modern America as   
   forming him into what he was," according to a release from the   
   Jackson County prosecutor.
