        About time. The sentence was inappropriate - considering her background circumstances & the fact she is young enough to have a chance at making a better life & maybe help at risk teens avoid being trafficked.

        I watched that documentary. Shocked that they felt life was an appropriate sentence. I have never understood America’s fetish for ridiculously draconian sentences for minors. Why can you try a child as an adult? They aren’t adults, how does that work

        It's against the law for somebody over 21 to have sex with a 16 year old the law considered statutory rape but this girl was pimped out the law says that she wasn't even of age to make that decision so she takes a life before her life was taken and she's being punished for life ?
