What if it was the death penalty instead of 30 years in prison? Would that change your opinion. She is 30 now would get out when she is 60 so its like a half death penalty, and she would lose the good half. At some point a punishment becomes unjust and we shouldn't subject a person to it.
She's 47 years old and would likely die in prison.
