What a story and Hal certainly was the good guy. She did a very evil thing but 50 jail years is inhumane and bureaucratic too.What a cruel unforgiving justice system America has. This woman needed a much lighter punishment en psychological help. There are so many extenuating circumstances. Where I come from she would have had a prison sentence combined with detention under a hospital order. Her parents and/or abusers are guilty too.
Thank you for sharing your perspective! This is certainly a highly controversial case, and punishments in the American legal system are often very harsh. Each country has a different approach to crime and sentencing. Thank you for contributing your viewpoint!
I would hate to be on that jury.
It is truly not an easy case! The jurors definitely have immense pressure when making their decision.
