A rather large assumption on your part, to assume that her past and circumstances weren't considered during sentencing.  What exactly are you advocating for that you're not actually saying?  A more lenient sentence, if so how lenient?  Dill seems to think that matter should have stayed in juvenile court, which in CA would mean she would be released at 25 when juvenile jurisdiction expired. Is under nine years an adequate sentence for first degree murder?

I addressed this very point at length in the post above.  You claim to desire a discussion on this girl and her treatment by the criminal justice system.  If so then actually offer up an opinion, what would have been just?  What should have been done that wasn't?  A little substance would help a bit here.

I think Dill had the right idea.  I think that under the current system she would have had a better chance.  It's to see her turning her life around and given the opportunity to be released at 25 with that turn might be better for her than when she is in her 60's.
