Yea it's not a pussy pass, read the whole article. She didn't brutally murder her fully functioning 28 year old daughter with a sledgehammer. She was trying to save her from a lifetime sentence of being mistreated and neglected after mom passed away. You really think that kid/adult would have had any kind of a life after mom died? Who the hell is going to adopt a 28 year old with no ability to take care of itself whatsoever?

Yes, it's still murder, but our judicial system takes context into consideration. The context here was not her vagina, it was her ailing health and her worries about her severely disabled child. The difference is whether she's an immediate threat to society upon release. After 23 years of caring for a 5 year old, your mind starts to think of things much differently. She's going to be psychologically analyzed it says, and treatment for her mental disability will likely be part of her correctional sentence. She's not a cold blooded killer, she basically put her dog out of its misery and tried to do the same for herself.

Cross post this to /r/MorbidReality, that's where it belongs.

not just kill the person because you don't want to do it anymore.

Right, but this isn't what happened here. She didn't just give up and say I'm done with life, she attempted to take the inevitable under control and do what she thought was best for her daughter. We can't know for sure what the daugher's life would've been like if her mom had went first. Maybe she'd be put in a good home and cared for etc. but that isn't the entirety of it.

Living conditions and external treatment aside, someone with the mental capacity of a small child can't possibly deal with the death of her only parent and best friend in a healthy manner. She even freaked out when the mom went into surgery or something, losing her permanently could ruin this person. Her mom saw that as worse than death, and decided to protect her naive little girl from the horrible eventuality in the only way she really could.

I'm not saying the sentence was right or wrong, she probably doesn't have much time left alive anyway. What I'm saying is.. she should've used more pills.
