If it was a mistake and you weren’t going in there trying to kill someone, you’d probably get 10 years, too, or maybe less or possibly nothing.
What she did deserves at least ten years. In Texas, manslaughter (reckless, but absence of intent) gets you two to twenty.

I am sorry, but I do not believe that.
I also believe the mistake excuse is as thin as can be. (wrong floor, wrong apartment, bright red door mat indicating wrong apartment, no notice of wrong apartment once door was open even though all décor is obviously different, man sitting eating ice cream seen as a threat, ect, ect, ect)
You or I throw that defense up in court, and our fate is sealed (as it should be for our “mistake”)
