but how you feel and how I feel about what is or is not justice and how the law should be applied really isn't the issue here. Yes, the prosecution can use discretion, but it does not mean they have to use it.
Yes, I know all that -- better than you probably give me credit for. But public attitudes toward a law or a given situation do matter, more so coming from the local folks but publicity and buzz nationally have often helped right an injustice.

Her lawyer needs to stop her from talking in public to reporters.
I again disagree. She has no defense except the court of public opinion and her regrets sound more sincere coming from her than from her lawyer.
