Look I’m all for rehabilitation, but she’s 19 currently, which places her at 16-17 for the murder, without doing more research. By all means, she should receive psychiatric care and rehabilitation should be attempted, but we shouldn’t have our hopes up. And while that’s going on, she must be kept imprisoned – mercy should not come at the expense of the innocence. Someone who makes a threat and then consciously speeds up to kill someone with a car is dangerous to society.
Something else I’ve come to learn is that unfortunately, punishment is necessary. Someone who’s prone to angry outbursts of racism and hate needs to understand that it’s absolutely unacceptable and they need to change. If you keep giving them a slap on the wrist each time, they won’t take it seriously, as compassionate as you are and as much as you try to convince them to change their ways.
Rehabilitation doesn’t mean the perpetrator won’t spend years separated from society, just that the perp’s sequestration happens in a setting meant to enable him/her to return to society in the distant future, assuming the perp becomes a changed person.
Is this even a question either? Rehabilitation absolutely should be the goal,if possible, no matter what. I’m sure the parent will want revenge, but that doesn’t make it right.
A haiku about this comment section:
Healthy mind? Minor? We don’t rehabilitate In the USA

You’re correct. She was 17 when this occurred
Last i checked rehab was like a monster truck derby.
So you think we should “rehab” school shooters too?
Yes.
People like him hate it when you hold on to your principles in the face of adversity.
Would you have the balls to say that to the face of the parents of a slain child?
Or only from the anonymous safety of your computer screen?

How is that even a question ?
Have you ever wondered why the US has so many school shooters?
