Mass murderer and she gets to walk. Wow.
Given her courtroom antics, I devoutly believe she’s still someone who will end up lashing out while free.
After being in jail for so long would she be able to survive and take care of herself in the real world?
She may end up regretting her new found freedom.
Yes, indeed. But I also heard somewhere that it costs over $50K/year to keep an individual in prison!
While she originally got the death sentence (voided by our wonderful Supreme Court), she has spent 46 years in prison, shows repentance and rehabilitation and does not appear to be a danger to society. I’m not a great fan of parole, but murderers who have done as bad, if not worse, have served half the time. I’m also not a fan of keeping someone in prison just because a celebrity was the victim as opposed to a “regular” person; hence, I don’t understand why the jackass Sirhan Sirhan is still in prison after 48 years while the multiple Brinks guards/cop murderer Mutulu Shakur got out after 30 years. While Van Houten participated in the LaBianca murders, she was not at the Tate residence on the night of the killings. I am NOT in favor of ever letting out Tex Watson, the main butcher in those “proceedings”.
