There is no justice in giving a murderer a light 10 year sentence that she'll be out for in 5.Its a shame that the worst of us look at this as a form of weakness
Unfortunately our world has too much darkness to embrace the true saints that walk among us
Still I am glad they continue to exist to remind me that... Yes there are still people of deep faith and huge hearts that understand what it still means to be pious, empathetic and whole
While she isn't deserving of such light and mercy its not up to me and thankfully the laws of this land saw justice through this time

You think there would be any of this forgiveness if the roles were reversed here? This is one garbage ass post and a perfect example of how white privilege works.

Forgiveness shouldn't be about what the person deserves or not. Forgiveness isn't excusing the behavior. It's about letting go of the animosity that you feel for them. If somebody drove my car and wrecked it because they were driving recklessly, I would forgive them but I wouldn't let them drive my car again.I don't think she deserves it, but if forgiveness helps her family get through it, more power to em I guess.

There is too much emphasis on forgiveness that just serves to coddle and protect perpetrators. It is OK and healthy to withhold forgiveness sometimes.
My thoughts exactly.Black People stay forgiving people that don't deserve it.
Whatever.
Are you criticizing him for forgiving her?There is no justice in giving a murderer a light 10 year sentence that she'll be out for in 5.
