How does it make sense? She’s got 12 years to serve for what happened while serving 43 years for a crime she didn’t commit, that means she served 31 extra years already! And that’s not even giving her the benefit of the doubt that she could potentially have spent 0 years in prison had she not been incarcerated in the first place meaning that the 12 years aren’t her fault but the fault of the system that put her in prison even though she was innocent!
Seriously. She’s banked a little time. She should be able to commit a few minor crimes and use her credit.
She should be allowed to commit 1 nonviolent felony and 4 misdemeanors by my math. More if any of them are victimless.
Just a little crime. Ya know, as a treat.
Light felonies
Not to mention, those extra years were undoubtedly due to the cutthroat environment of landing in prison and having to learn to survive. It’s a goddamn trope in movies/tv. In fucking sitcoms. Prison forces people to become criminals or else be brutalized.
So she was drugged, forced into confessing flimsily, sent to prison as a mentally unwell person, and had to survive. Those violence charges against her should’ve been thrown out immediately after they realized she was never supposed to be there in the first place.
This fuckin system in this fucking country…
Whilst this was happening, someone had the thought that they could do something to stop this woman getting out of prison. That person would either need a specific reason, something to gain, or just be one of the smallest people/biggest cunts to ever grace the planet.
I agree with all the other reasons this is fucked, but let’s all step back and have a shudder about this:
In 2015, after Holman’s death, authorities searched his house to find gold horseshoe-shaped earrings in a closet, which Jeschke’s father said he had given his daughter.
If dude had just thrown those earrings away she’d have had no hope of ever being released.
That poor girl. Lost her whole life to some nonsense. So sad. I wish I could do more to stop things like this from happening
This is America
While i do agree with you, that is the correct word for it. Much like how if an Archeologists found the remains Caucasian people they would be called Caucasoid and Asian is called mongoloid.
A quick Google search tells me that the term is outdated and no longer used, having been refuted by modern genetics research.
I appreciate you letting me know. I will no longer use that word.
It’s a sensitive topic but white and black people are genetically much more seperated than black and white rhinos which we are happy to describe as separate species.
The term isn’t outdated because it’s incorrect, it’s outdated because if you start saying different groups of humans are literally separate species it really feeds in to the racist agenda.

He’s just straight-up wrong. See my post replying to his.

That is simply not true
85% of human genetic diversity exists within local populations. White and black people are genetically less separated than white and white people or black and black people, depending on the specific people. There is much more genetic diversity within populations than between them. A source
There is essentially no genetic support for the idea of races. They are purely a social construct based on some shallow phenotypical differences, culture, and the prejudices of a given time.

The world needs more people who behave this way when shown they are mistaken. Good on you!

I’m pretty sure it was on Reddit at some point but I’m not saying that makes it any more trustworthy.

I don’t think this is what I was referring to, but very interesting.
dude are you like 200 years old
Well, that story played out like a bad movie. -Dirty cop, frame-job, and all.
What was that epic poem released by that group? Oh yeah, Fuck the Police.
For republicans… Cruelty IS the point
