Exactly! Better yet, I'd sentence her to being this woman's caregiver. Somehow, though, in my gut I feel that nothing is going to work w/this person. I don't like to appear cynical; I want to believe in my heart that everyone can be rehabilitated but given that this young girl is already a suspect in another crime, I think she's a rage-a-holic and won't stop until she commits a crime so heinous that the courts stop her by putting her in prison. She's too young to be that angry. Yes, she may have something in her own past that made her that way. I don't care. Nowadays there are support groups for everything. Got a hang nail? There's a support group for that. So she can avail herself of the help and support that's out there, if that is, indeed, the case. The attorneys often like to turn it around and make it seem like the perpetrator is the victim due to a horrendous childhood or whatever. I sure hope that doesn't happen here.
