No. That is way too excessive. Life with a mìnimum of 15 years is reasonable. It is up to the parole board whether she is released. People can change. I've seen cases much more deserving of life without parole than this

She suffers from schizophrenia, and three of the four psychologists agreed that she'd suffered a psychotic break. Someone in the midst of psychosis can't calculate anything and is not inhabiting reality. She was temporarily insane and hence should be in a mental institution, not a prison. Realizing this requires a certain amount of objectivity, which has never been Americans' strong suit. Sadly, there is no possibility of justice without objectivity.
@WaitingtoHit no one doubts that she is beyond mentally ill, however by the legal definition, she was not insane at the time of the crime. She clearly understood the wrongfulness of her actions as she attempted to stage a break in. She's headed in the right direction
@@WaitingtoHit one was a sports psychologist. All three who believed that were paid defense witnesses. They wouldn't be on the stand testifying if they didn't say what the defense wanted them to say.
@@blitzmom2674 If a person's job is to be a psychologist, why would s/he not be paid for his/her services? You could just as easily note that the prosecution's psychologist was paid, but that too would be a meaningless statement. A more logical statement would be that they wouldn't be on the stand if they didn't happen to hold a view that was consistent with what the defense was arguing. There is no evidence that any of these psychologists were mere puppets. A psychologist is a psychologist, so unless someone proves that those three are disreputable in some way, I am inclined to trust the majority opinion. Frankly, I find it worrisome that the prosecution could only come up with one psychologist to verify their claims about this woman's state of mind.
Her mother’s life wasn’t even worth court costs, absolutely unbelievable and tears turned on and off like an outside tap. This vile unhinged selfish piece of scum has got off very lightly.

She will be able to kill more people unprovoked, just because she snaps on a dime. She is so dangerous, and that is mental illness. 15 years wont change anything.
@@mariahewes4723 Are you from La-La land? Have a look at Robert Chambers: he served 15 years for a murder only because he had numerous infractions in the prison (spend years in solitary confinement due to his violent nature), otherwise he would have been released EARLY. He was back in prison two times since his release, he clearly is a repeat offender and a dangerous man, still, his last conviction was cut sort and he's out again to commit further crimes. Sydney will be out before she served the 15 years. Did you not hear the judge not wanting to "impose unnecessary burden on state and local resources"?!? They're saving money on the expense of public safety.
This is unbelievable! Her mother suffered a violent cruel death and she gets 15 yrs? 🤦🏾♀️ there’s people serving longer sentences for less serious crimes . She ame in the judge!
Her family thinks they should get to dictate to the court what her punishment should be, or in this case no punishment should be given. Ridiculous. They turned their backs on the murdered victim for this entitled spoiled brat. Shameful.
It's called Entitlement! I am most stunned that they seemed to care less about her Mom. The father's testimony was disturbing, He spoke with passion only when it came to her paying for what she'd done, and said very little about his wife. How they were more upset about her going to jail over murdering her MOM!
Agreed! If you take out the person that brought you into this world, then you yourself will have to be taken out as well. Society should live by this rule. An eye for an eye
@@IndianOutlaw1870 This mother was clearly not one of those. Which means, her killer is a narcissistic demon-daughter from hell. Who'll set free in her 30s ... and she might become your neighbour.
Well we can only hope that the parole board keep her locked up. That’s a seriously easy penalty for any murder that the judge gave, and mind boggling for killing your mom in such a manner. She got the bare minimum. Well we know the value of her mom in her eyes and the courts now 👎🏻
She not only bludgeoned her mom, she then stabbed her a few dozen times. Those on the phone could hear the air leaving Brenda's lungs. Instead of trying to get out Sydney should be clamoring to be put behind bars, in penance for what she did to the woman who loved her most.

15 years it's all her mother's life was worth. It is just disgusting how soft our society has gone dealing with these killer kids. They all claim insanity and all they have to do is cry, for judges to forget who the real victims are. It was not about what her family wanted for her; it was about keeping her away from the rest of us. She will be out after serving 85 percent of her sentence and will be working at a mall near you.
So, in these 15 years will she receive a college degree & come out with a leg up for a good paying career???? Still haven’t figured out what mom did so wrong to be murder 😢
This sentence is horrible. A live for a life. Not even court cost and not even a scolding from the bench!!! She made a choice to pick up the pan and knife and inflicted death upon the person who loved her. Ohio judge you should be ashamed to wish the evil monster good luck!!!! I hope the community is outraged at the pitiful slap on the wrist.
People caught with a pound of marijuana get longer sentences. This is a hiccup in her life and will be back on the streets in no time. God help the next person that makes her mad.
She had a opportunity to say how sorry she was that she killed her lovely mother but she decided she wasn't worth talking about just like her family thinks Brenda life wasn't worth being punished for makes me so sad... RIP Brenda....
Why are people getting such little time for KILLING nowadays??!! Only 15 years? Disgusting! It should be a minimum of 25 to life for anyone that takes a life. Gross. I’m so disgusted with our system and Sydney for FOOLING EVERYONE! Even the judge was fooled by her.
What a terrible disrespect to the victim.Diminishing the act of murder,especially of a mother is disgusting. What about her brother how does he feel. its obvious to me that the defence advised her to see a doctor who prescribed her meds in order to make a case at a later date.Why has the family any say in this instance.
If the brother had something to say, he would have said it to the judge, in writing. He does not need to make a public statement because the public has no need to know.
What a weak ass sentence!! Its like they forgot she killed somebody. And not just anybody, but she killed HER MOTHER because all her lies finally caught up.
Entitled little spoiled princess. It should have been life no parole. How long before she has another tantrum? She'll not be safe for society because her family is still coddling her and not holding her accountable. Why? Are they scared of her?
Well I think because of the families standing behind her and the motto was “ even her mom didn’t want her to go thru this. Sad mom ment nothing to both families I guess. Cause I would be outraged. Think dad did a good job defending his daughter to both families.🤮🤮🤮🤮R.I.P MOM🕯🕯🙏🙏
Her family will, and probably have, petition the court to send her to a camp instead of a real prison. They will probably ask if she can do her time on grandma’s farm.
The attorney and the other guy is working hard to get her into “the new 100 bed facility “ that is opening. I think it’s in the same area of the prison.
This whole case is horrible. Sydney is going to prisoner as a murdering liar and in just 15 short years she will be out. Still no real life skills. And all the while no one really cared about justice for Brenda.
This is a slap in the face to the family! How do you not get a life sentence for this brutal murder of your own mother. This girl is still being treated with privilege in my opinion. I hope she is haunted every day of her miserable life.
15 years to life means the minimum she will do is 15 but that doesn’t mean she will get out at 15 most people that take a life do not get out the first second or even third time depending on their behavior while incarcerated
@@bullitt0713And when she's up for parole, the whole family will be there in droves to support her release. I hope Brenda's friends and the DA will be there to support Brenda. She knew exactly what she was doing to her mom. Evil pos.
If she had just thrown herself at her mother's feet, and admitted what trouble she was in, then she would've been finished with her education by now, instead of being sentenced for the senseless murder, and brutal murder of her mother. With the heaviest fying pan she could get, then concentrating the knife on her mother's neck, to finish her off! What a monster. Now she even set a new precedent, that you can go outside if the details of your heinous acts are too much for you. What a mess!
She's really crying? She got off SO EASY for killing her own mother! She will get out one day. Her mom cannot come back to life. I hope this spoiled, entitled idiot realizes there are people in these prisons serving much longer sentences for non-violent crimes who are going to resent the hell out of her.
She was a teen at time and kids get second chance at life as brains not developed to good decision making by law and by psychology standards. Adult women get no such second chance unless they were badly abused by the victim perhaps. By law this sentence is right. Doesn’t mean she gets out after 15 years! Parole board will ensure she takes full responsibility and explain her decisions and how she would change that in future before letting her out!
I don't believe Sydney has any serious mental illness beyond rage and generalized anxiety. I believe she felt cornered and desperate, which made her act irrationally because she felt so ashamed to have failed in her first phase of adulthood. College is not simply about intelligence, so her past grades are irrelevant. It's about going from childhood to adulthood, about developing your own structure, dealing with childhood issues and shifts in identity that bubble out when you are on your own for the first time. A lot of people have trouble with the shift but they do not kill.
She’s so selfish that she couldn’t even be present for the details of her evil deed. If she were truly remorseful, she’d seek to repent rather than hide from the truth.
But she needed to get her nails done and go shopping for new outfits to wear in front of the cameras. It was her acting debut for the world after all. 🤭
@@DovaMatiyeah the nail job caused outrage and she showed up next day with no Polish I noticed! Nomore spoiled brat! She didn’t shower or comb hair and was gross and dirty today in court trying to get more sympathy and nobody cared!!! The jail did not give her queen murderer status! Now she gets evaluated and off to a harsh prison with other murderers worse than her! They will be calling her a “fatty”. She should not have eaten like a pig at grandmas house! Prison food is all carbs and she will come out a cow. That’s going to get bullying now! She is not such s smart girl afterall. 🤦♀️
I hope she doesn't kill anyone else in prison or when she gets released. I hope she learns her lesson, keeps her lesson, and throws away her experience. In my opinion, she deserved more time in prison.
That's serial killer crime scene. Regular murderers don't have the stomach to kill anyone so brutally and then keep the calculated mind to create a fake break in scene.
@@tradeladder146Completely agree. I couldn’t believe the judge’s attitude. She spoke to Sydney like she sympathised with her. Not a mention of the heinous crime she had committed or her poor mother. Then to wish her ‘good luck’ was appalling. What the heck is up with American justice when a defence lawyer is telling the court how he loves his client and the judge is delivering the most lenient of sentences and treating the convicted murderer like a victim.
Damn! Only 15yrs!!! The other 3yrs will be served concurrent! I wish it would of been consecutive so then she would get at least 18…. I’m still shocked that she got only 15 for BRUTALLY murdering her own mother!!!!
The woke court tv anchors are disgraceful, they completely disregard the juries verdict and think this entitled brat shouldn't be held accountable for this horrendous murder because in their minds she is actually the victim here, it's always the same when there is a younger female charged with and found guilty of a serious crime.
@LisaH921 so how do you explain the female who threw caustic soda over her father who subsequently died and she was found guilty but walked out off the court house free, the female who threw her baby in a dumpster, just to highlight a couple, the court tv anchors made excuses for them because they were young women or "children" as they were referred to.
@@angieharris9744I agree! They had no love for the Black girl that shot and killed her boyfriend while the police that she asked$ for help stood outside and did nothing.
@@pw191164you are right on point. Also, don’t forget about the current baby killer that was in the er, went to the bathroom and had the baby then stuffed him in the trash and went back to her room like nothing happened. Her mother knew she was pregnant, at least that is my belief.
These young inmates are still fertile, they should be able to have other children in exchange for prison time since we have a current birth decline issue.
Sob story about what the family wants when justice is owed to the true victim: Brenda Powell. Tired of the implication that Sydney Powell is a victim. Guess who gets to decide justice: the jury. Despite the Powell and family attempts to sway justice, the prosecution represented Brenda Powell, and the jury made the call. Seeing an interview with Julie Grant siding with the defense over the case: a jury decided and you lost. Shame on you Julie Grant. Shame on you, defense attorney for maligning the prosecutor. He owed it to the victim not your client. The jury decided. Stop acting like a baby. I wonder if you and the prosecutor will be able to work together in the future, the way you are calling him names and criticizing his character.
@@lamalady57 I’m guessing these lawyers run into each other on other cases, and the defense attorney is making a future relationship hard with his insults.
Well said. The defence lawyers statement was appalling especially after his own unprofessional behaviour in telling his client he loved her in court. Julie Grants siding with him was equally as appalling! Even the judge’s sentencing was a disgrace. She was treating Sydney like a fragile little child and practically apologising to her for sentencing her at all. I have never in all my years seen so much sympathy and pandering to a cold blooded murderer before, especially considering how heinous the crime was. Shameful 😳
If it had been a kid from the ghetto they'd have gotten the book thrown at them. What were the mitigating factors? There were none. She should have gotten life without parole like anyone else. She's got a very dangerous mind.
@@GH-oi2jf More crime among “privileged and entitled “ kids. Their mommies and daddies are the lawyers, police officers, judges etc. I don’t need to say more. Thank you!
So her lawyer who said he’s treating her like family not gonna help her appeal? Wants judge to assign public defender? Do you think she still loves him?
He’s not an appeal attorney. Tax payers will pay for her appeal attorneys and you can bet her obsessed attorney will have his hands in the pot doing everything he can for her.
No apologies from Sydney to first responders and Mount Union staff for causing them a lifetime of PTSD after witnessing her brutality. And then, they had to relive it all in court.
She’s such a bad actress I have never seen someone crying and heaving so hard yet no red eyes no tears…When I lost people I’ve loved and cried my eyes were red and puffy and my tears could’ve made a puddle. I literally can’t stand her . Then her family says her mother would’ve forgiven her…yeh right! If one of my kids started banging me over the head and then stabbed me to death all because they flunked a semester…I’m saying right here right now I would NOT forgive them!!
I too wonder if Sidney was a male child whether the sentence would have been the same or more severe. As it is though, this is the best her lawyers could have hoped for. If the appeal is upheld, perhaps the sentence might end up being longer the second time round. It wouldn’t be the first time. One can hope.
No, you learn something. 18 year olds are adults in Ohio. They are not children. 18 and older is an adult by law, period. The only reason she got the sentence she did is because the charge was murder instead of aggravated murder. "Murder" in Ohio is no premeditation. "Aggravated murder" is with premeditation and/or committed along with another serious felony. They are both unclassified felonies in Ohio, but Sydney was charged with what most would call "second-degree murder". 15 to life is THE STANDARD for her charge. You posted that junk about teens and the law all over this video.
So she got 18 years? How much of that does she have to serve before she goes up for parole? I can’t believe how little of a sentence she got. What a horrific murder and against her own mother , and that’s all she got.
If you watch a lot of the youtube court cases? She can go before them in half of the 18 years with good behavior, and programs. As a prison guard myself, I/We have witnessed many people who have killed multiple people , and be able to go before a board & get released. I doubt that she will be anything but a saint in jail out of fear, and not being a hard enough person to handle what she is now seeing first hand, and please believe that however long she is made to pay, she will be Terrified to say the least, and it will harden her , her Tears will cost her in jail, she will have to toughen up, so at least she will not have Grandma cooking special food for her where she is going! It's my hope that what she did to her mom plays in her head like a movie! Non Stop

The sentence should’ve been LIFE as she BLUDGEONED her mother’s life! She is a calculating murderer! 👿
She suffers from schizophrenia, and three of the four psychologists agreed that she'd suffered a psychotic break. Someone in the midst of psychosis can't calculate anything and is not inhabiting reality. She was temporarily insane and hence should be in a mental institution, not a prison. Realizing this requires a certain amount of objectivity, which has never been Americans' strong suit. Sadly, there is no possibility of justice without objectivity.
@WaitingtoHit no one doubts that she is beyond mentally ill, however by the legal definition, she was not insane at the time of the crime. She clearly understood the wrongfulness of her actions as she attempted to stage a break in. She's headed in the right direction
@@WaitingtoHit one was a sports psychologist. All three who believed that were paid defense witnesses. They wouldn't be on the stand testifying if they didn't say what the defense wanted them to say.
@@WaitingtoHitR.I.P.BRENDA
@@blitzmom2674 If a person's job is to be a psychologist, why would s/he not be paid for his/her services? You could just as easily note that the prosecution's psychologist was paid, but that too would be a meaningless statement. A more logical statement would be that they wouldn't be on the stand if they didn't happen to hold a view that was consistent with what the defense was arguing. There is no evidence that any of these psychologists were mere puppets. A psychologist is a psychologist, so unless someone proves that those three are disreputable in some way, I am inclined to trust the majority opinion. Frankly, I find it worrisome that the prosecution could only come up with one psychologist to verify their claims about this woman's state of mind.
Her mother’s life wasn’t even worth court costs, absolutely unbelievable and tears turned on and off like an outside tap. This vile unhinged selfish piece of scum has got off very lightly. To think that the family care more about her than the mother who gave birth to her, is hard to comprehend. RIP 💙

She has no money and the judge is bright enough to know those costs would have been paid by the family, who are victims.

Have a look at Robert Chambers: he served 15 years for a murder only because he had numerous infractions in the prison (spend years in solitary confinement due to his violent nature), otherwise he would have been released EARLY. He was back in prison two times since his release, he clearly is a repeat offender and a dangerous man, still, his last conviction was cut sort and he's out again to commit further crimes.
Sydney will be out before she served the 15 years. Did you not hear the judge not wanting to "impose unnecessary burden on state and local resources"?!?
They're saving money on the expense of public safety.
38, but yeah

She not only bludgeoned her mom, she then stabbed her a few dozen times. Those on the phone could hear the air leaving Brenda's lungs. Instead of trying to get out Sydney should be clamoring to be put behind bars, in penance for what she did to the woman who loved her most.

If the brother had something to say, he would have said it to the judge, in writing. He does not need to make a public statement because the public has no need to know.

I don't believe Sydney has any serious mental illness beyond rage and generalized anxiety. I believe she felt cornered and desperate, which made her act irrationally because she felt so ashamed to have failed in her first phase of adulthood. College is not simply about intelligence, so her past grades are irrelevant. It's about going from childhood to adulthood, about developing your own structure, dealing with childhood issues and shifts in identity that bubble out when you are on your own for the first time. A lot of people have trouble with the shift but they do not kill.
She’s so selfish that she couldn’t even be present for the details of her evil deed.
If she were truly remorseful, she’d seek to repent rather than hide from the truth.

He owed it to the victim not your client. The jury decided. Stop acting like a baby.

If one of my kids started banging me over the head and then stabbed me to death all because they flunked a semester…I’m saying right here right now I would NOT forgive them!!
I too wonder if Sidney was a male child whether the sentence would have been the same or more severe. As it is though, this is the best her lawyers could have hoped for. If the appeal is upheld, perhaps the sentence might end up being longer the second time round. It wouldn’t be the first time. One can hope.
Food for thought. I think your right though
The same as it’s by law for teen murderers! Learn something!!!
No, you learn something. 18 year olds are adults in Ohio. They are not children. 18 and older is an adult by law, period. The only reason she got the sentence she did is because the charge was murder instead of aggravated murder. "Murder" in Ohio is no premeditation. "Aggravated murder" is with premeditation and/or committed along with another serious felony.
They are both unclassified felonies in Ohio, but Sydney was charged with what most would call "second-degree murder".
15 to life is THE STANDARD for her charge. You posted that junk about teens and the law all over this video.
The absolutely most heartbreaking irony is that she needs her mother more than she ever has. And she killed her.
No tears fake woman, she should stay in jail for life for killing her mother
