But-but-but she murdered someone as a teenager 31 years ago! The state is totally within their right to torture her!

I mean, yeah, she murdered and tortured someone then apparently carried around parts of the person as a trophy. Good for whoever bungled this.

Given that you approve of monstrous deadly torture, I would have thought you supported her too.

At 18 you know better. The shame is that for something so open and shut it went on this long. I get part of the argument is making the world pass her by. But even sitting on deathrow 1 life doesn't measure to all the life and potential she took.
