I thnk we can put an end to any holier than thou condescension and the immediate tripe about those in dissent with this mother's expert legal opinion being racists themselves by looking at the facts presented in the article.
Think about it. The minimum time in prison for this crime is automatic life. She got 12 years without parole. WTF is she complaining about racism for?

A jury convicted Pasqua last week of second-degree murder - which carries an automatic life sentence

The sentence is pure weak sauce, but lets look past that for a moment.
There are 2 additional years that the Judge added to the Jury's recommendation to be accounted for. Are they:
A) For being an Adult who Murdered a Minor by pushing him in front of a train.
B) For already having a criminal record.
or
C) Being a Native.
Quote:
But Rooke [The Judge] said Pasqua's criminal record, coupled with the fact she was an adult who killed a child in the eyes of the law, worked against her. She didn't have to resort to fighting Prevost on the C-Train platform, he said.
