It's fortunate for her that she had merely sought out and repeatedly stabbed her spouse's ex-girlfriend.

Had she shot a burglar in her own home she would have been in big trouble.

That's a fair comment, but I would submit that the juries are made up of a cross section of our populace. That they can't rationalize better than this does say something about our society at large. It isn't pretty.
