Literally causing the starvation of hungry children used to be punished by mob beating to death. I think she is getting of quite lightly, and will probably make a profit when she gets out in like two years and does a right wing media circus tour.
I think it’s also important for you to understand the context that a non-violent woman is unlikely to serve more than a third of her initial sentence which is where these numbers come from.
That’s a good thing, not a bad one. But my objection still stands. It’s a harsh sentence for a non violent crime. Which, if harsh sentences did any good, I wouldn’t object. But they don’t.
How would you handle someone that intentionally starved thousands of children? It’s not like this was some broke starving person stealing a tampon, they had a stable, well paying executive job and made an intentional choice.
This was not literal starvation. Shitty, underhanded, and illegal, but not starvation. If you’re going to insist on exaggerating the issue, please don’t bother me.
I’ll say it again, it doesn’t matter what the non violent crime is, you make the justice about fixing what they did. I’m not sure where in the thread I said it, but I suggested a decade of community service working in the very program stolen from, under heavy supervision.

The mistakes of the past being used as an excuse to keep making lesser mistakes is pretty damn lame.
Does the sentence do anything other than make people feel better because it’s punishment?

Hyperbole isn’t useful either.
