My brain immediately thinks we need a law where things that are normally illegal can be forgiven due to circumstances that bypass the meaning of the act being illegal.
Such as, murder is illegal. But this murder should be forgiven due to the circumstances.
But thats what makes it hard, is the fact that you KNOW a forgiveness law would IMMEDIATELY be abused by the rich. I'm trying to imagine not just the intentions of the forgiveness law, but also the realistic outcome.
And the way I see it going is that this woman wouldn't even be eligable for the forgiveness law. The judge would find some reason, blah blah blah bullshit, and then she's not eligable.
Meanwhile, if one of Elon Musks thousands of unclaimed kids went on a murder spree, killing 304 people in a night, he'd be the one who gets the forgiveness law, despite BOTH situations going against the laws intentions.
That's part of the reason why in America we have jury nullification. The jurors can agree. Yeah, this lady murdered this guy. She straight-up merked him with a can of gasoline and a match.
Hope she gets out soon.
Great news! Apparently, she's been out of jail for a while. This is an even older news story than I expected.

Goddamn, it took a week for the burns to kill him. Brutal.
Also, good.
Maria did nothing wrong
I didn't see her do it. Musta been someone else.
Rare case of spontaneous combustion.
Only logical conclusion.
See, this is the hard part.

She's not a criminal though.
It's also why pardons exist
Didn't know she was a billionaire.
