    From what I understand, she has some sort of blood disorder that can interfere with the chemicals. They were told this by her lawyers and went through with it anyway. Twice. And she survived. Both times. So yeah. That’s fun.

          She was 19. Had been abused herself, and had fetal alchohol poisoning. If she’d had spent the last 30 years being rehabilitated, she’d be a very different person from that fucked up 19-yo.

        The sentence is death, not poked with a needle. The system got this one right up to that point, it wasn’t a complicated case. The system could still do better and needs to change, but she really doesn’t need to be the one who goes free because of that.
