Prosecutors recommend 30 days for woman who called in bomb threat to Children's Hospital; say her remorse is 'genuine and heartfelt,' but she still needs to pay a price
Prosecutors recommend 30 days for woman who called in bomb threat to Children's Hospital; say her remorse is 'genuine and heartfelt,' but she still needs to pay a price
A western-Massachusetts woman whose transphobic bomb threat forced the lock down of Children's Hospital and part of the Longwood Medical Area has expressed sincere regret and participated in a "restorative justice" program but should still be imprisoned for 30 days and then spend six months in home ...
30 days punishment to cause a hospital to evacuate, with hundreds of sick kids, doesn't seem like enough.
Yeah, was she remorseful because she was tricked or because she did something atrocious?
Why are we punishing her? Can’t she be made to improve society in some way to make up for what she did? The harm she caused isn’t fixed with revenge.
From where I stand, the major problem with the far right is that they're constantly being handled with kid gloves.
This was just bigotry and hatred on display and it escalates to this point because no one is ever putting a firm stop to it.
I don't think it's sufficient to allow someone who is willing to let children die in order to satiate their bigotry and hatred of queer people get off with some cleaning trash off the side of the road.
This very easily could have been manslaughter.
Honestly, 30 days is too low from where I'm standing.
While incarcerated, I'm fine with regular therapy and anything else to improve her as a person, but she shouldn't be walking free in 30 days. She may not call any more bomb threats, but she's hardly done making life hell for minorities.
