The title implies that it was HIS grandmother who was killed. No, it was “a” grandmother of others.

At first, I thought he would at least suffer the wrath of his own family, and that he’d suffered a personal loss by killing his grandma. But since it wasn’t his grandma, the thirty days seems even more paltry!

“Slap on the wrist” doesn’t come close to describing this travesty of justice. Texters should have the exact same penalty as drunk drivers.

Oh, thanks for clearing that up. I’d misread it too.

Slap on the wrist - great minds.

It also implies that killing a grandmother is so much worse than killing, say, a 5 year old child.
