Too Harsh?

I was amazed at this news report. First this girl kills her infant son and dumps him in the quarry. Then she only gets voluntary manslaughter and has to serve only six years? There are people sitting in prison with longer sentences on drug convictions. Now her lawyers won an appeal claiming the sentence was too harsh. This girl got a gem only six years for committing murder.

I don't care if she was fifteen or not. I remember when I was fifteen and I knew that murder was wrong. So it is pretty safe she did too. Her lawyers need to stop trying to get her off and make her pay her debt to society.

I agree. I feel this is a good example on why we have such problems in our country. There isn't much consequences for criminal behavior. Everyone's a bleeding heart. Everyone's got a sad story. We need to stop listening to the beeding heart stories. Everyone has one.

I agree with both of you. Maybe the courts need to look at why her baby will never have ANY stories to tell and make their decision that way.

what amazes me is that if she had had an abortion she would not be going through this, it was only AFTER she gave birth and CHOSE to kill her baby that the law kicks in. That is just WRONG!

Ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous. Our whole society and their policies, regulations, system, priorities, are all SCREWED! There is NO JUSTICE for anyone.

Everything is messed. This chick committed murder, and she's not being punished for it.

Why don't they just put a new rule out that anyone you kill under a year old = X years in jail, between 1-5= X years in jail, etc.

Let's just trash the value of a human life. In fact, let's make it worthless! Especially that of an innocent little baby, unable to defend themselves, have an opinion, or experience any life.

Let's just allow her to be God, and let her off.

Anyone else want to play God? You'll only get 6 years max! Maybe less depending on how good your lawyer is and how weak the judge and court is.

WHAT A JOKE!

You think this is a joke now, just wait until her lawyers not only win the appeal, but then sue the state (wherever it is) for damages resulting from this "harsh" imprisonment. OH Boo hoo!! Yet another excuse-maker. If we continue to direct all of our attention toward filth (serial killers, criminals who happen to be actors/athletes/singers/rappers/whatever), then filth is what we'll have to live with.
