I wouldn’t be the lest upset if she was turned loose. What occurred was years ago and as her life has been above reproach nothing to be served by sending her to jail.
I have not read anything indicating that a review of her life since her escape found it to have been “above reproach”. They are probably still investigating; she did use an number of aliases as she moved around. And she did put her family at risk for criminal prosecution instead of pursuing the appeals process and other legal avenues, including doing her time for dealing heroin.
She didn’t get sentenced to 20 yrs for being caught smoking a joint. She was a heroin dealer, probably dealing to other teens.
I think a pretty hefty fine is in order here. Not so much the jail time.
