Not gonna lie, I have no idea, all I read was some of the article. I didn't watch any court proceedings or anything related to her sentencing. I'm just pointing out that while I do think she probably will never be able to forgive herself for this, she's not the only person who lost a kid, or a family member that day, and if it was her negligence or lack of positive control over a firearm in her possession that was the main cause of this death then that's on her.
If I had to guess she probably didn't have a team of lawyers either. I don't trust the justice system to be a fair or just institution because too often it just isn't. But, I can certainly see why people who are tired of children dying to poor gun control measures would want to serve up consequences for someone whose negligence led to the endangerment of two children and the death of one of them.
