That would be surprising given the minimum sentence for second degree murder is life with no parole for 10 years.
We really don't know how much time this killer will serve either. i.e.: how much time she'll get double credit for for her time in remand, How her behaviour will affect things, etc, so it really isn't a good comparison.
