I hope someone shook her hand and thanked her for her service before they put her away.
Is jail where they give her her medal of honor?
Ill reserve the rest of my opinion but two in the head is cleaner than an abuser of that magnitude earned for themselves, feels like at that point you're basically just preventing any more victims they would have made. Cops have walked away free men after worse executions for worse reasons.
The only punishment she should have ever received is mandatory therapy. This is a fucking traumatized woman, and you are adding to the trauma.
Let killer cops go free, jail the victims of the failed justice system.
The cruelty seems to be the point.

Time for some Shawshank redemption shit
Absolutely outrageous.
I bet if this poor girl were white she would have walked
I feel like, if this was Texas... there would be no punishment for her. She was severely wronged and he was clearly a danger to society. He had multiple victims. The police had evidence and released him. If he had been in jail, if he had been in custody and not roaming around free, he'd still be alive if that was oh, so fucking important.
I'm going to say it louder for the people in the back. They found proof of multiple victims. They knew he did it, he was let go. The "legal" system failed not only Chrystul, but the surrounding community.

Sounds to me like she has a new abuser.
This is fucking infuriating.
FOR FUCKS SAKE CHILDREN. 100% OF THE TIME YOU TRAVEL TO ANOTHER TOWN WITH A GUN, SHOOT SOMEONE TWICE IN THE HEAD KILLING THEM, THEN BURN THEIR HOUSE DOWN AND FLEE YOU WILL 100% FACE JAILTIME. 11 YEARS TO COMMIT PREMEDITATED MURDER IS A VERY FUCKIN FAVORABLE DEAL AND SHE WOULD BE RETARDED NOT TO ACCEPT. Fuck me the amount of people in here saying lies that she killed him to escape or that she deserves a fuckin pardon is absolutely retarded. Yeah dude she killed 100% deserved it but so does her receiving 11 years as the consequence.
Well, not 100%, Rittenhouse didn't face a day of jail time. Though I guess he killed two people instead of burning a house down.

Lemmy now supports not only the death penalty but death penalty without a trial.
Wanting someone who killed in desparation in well-known and very extenuous circumstances a lighter punishment in no way condones the crime.
Many think the justice system should prioritize rehabilitation, not retribution.
Instead of fixing people, retribution just breaks them even further, making it more likely they'll commit a crime in the future, oftentimes because they're forced to by circumstances they find themselves in when (if) they're finally set free.
