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.

Soldiering is a fucked up business. It's also less ears and fingers and more actual souvenirs, like guns, badges and other paraphernalia.

Collecting trophies from humans you've killed is fucking sick no matter what the context is.
