[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it’s right and fair. Sentences in the US are far too long. For someone lacking the intent to take a life, we should have short sentences. We should also have more 10-20 year sentences for intentional murders. [/quote] Getting in the car drunk is just like shooting a random bullet into a crowd. We can infer that you have intent to possibly kill someone (or at least that you don’t truly care if you do). If we were jailing people for veering off the road while having a sudden heart attack, I could see your point about not locking people away who don’t have an intent to kill. But this woman chose to drink alcohol, knowing she had access to her car keys and without any apparent alternative mode of transportation arranged. She took a life away because of her purposeful actions. 3.5 years is a joke. [/quote]
