“There’s no evidence at all that shows that people who are sent to prison under hate crime legislation come out of prison and are less likely to harm another marginalized person. It doesn’t rehabilitate people, it doesn’t make anyone safer.”

While I agree that prison system needs some change ; This provides a closure for the victim and makes her responsible for her cold blooded actions.
I believe she got it lenient for what she did to that woman. She very nearly beat her to death.
Yes, Rashmi, I am aware of that very common opinion regarding closure. I was simply providing another point of view. Did you actually read the article or are you just referring to the quote?
