My point being, courts make terrible decisions all the time and that has more to do with a flawed system than it does to do with sexism.
Florida.
Kill a black teenager in a hoodie? Nada.
Fire a warning shot at your abusive husband? 20 years in jail! (Thankfully it was reduced to 3, but still for fucks sake)
Yea I just looked it up because I was going off memory of it at the time. Pretty sure she also go two years of house arrest right?
Different articles are saying different things but it looks like they charged her with 3 counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon (one each for the husband and his 2 sons who were there). The minimum sentence for that in Florida would be 60 years
