NASHVILLE — When she was just 16, Cyntoia Brown climbed into a pickup truck with a stranger, drove to his home, got into his bed — then shot him in the back of the head with a .40-caliber handgun as he lay naked beside her.

Brown, now 28, is serving a life sentence at the Tennessee Prison for Women for the murder of Johnny Mitchell Allen, a 43-year-old Nashville real estate agent.

On the other foot, why do women allow themselves to be abused by males or other females?

You do the crime, you do the time.

Why do men pick up strange street prostitutes, that is asking for a STD or in the case being killed?

While sex drive is the second strongest, food is first, it would be better of bringing back legal Brothel’s with health checks and Federal Income taxes paid. State taxes in states that have them. Tennessee does NOT, only sales tax.

so·ci·o·path ˈsōsēōˌpaTH/ noun noun: sociopath; plural noun: sociopaths a person with a personality disorder manifesting itself in extreme antisocial attitudes and behavior and a lack of conscience. We have raised 2 generations of sociopaths, created them with 'it takes a Village attitude', lack of discipline, morals and a steady diet of violent TV, Movies and Vids that teach violence with no consequences. That glorifies such actions. With each generation being worse than the next. And we are no longer allowed to discipline them so they learn right from wrong. THANK THE LIBTARDS and RINOS.

Yeah. That would be okay if we didn’t drag it out for years. Thankfully the very thing the people on the left count of to shock folks about the injustice of the death penalty, relatively inexpensive genetics testing and ever improving forensics techniques, will actually make the death penalty MORE palatable going forward because there will be greater confidence in convictions.

Not having a death penalty for crimes which actually merit it, like premeditated murder, is barbaric.

Sounds like a Murray Povich episode: Stupid Men and the Dangerous Women Who Love Them

Yeah, [some] scientific studies show adolescent brains aren’t fully developed.
Other studies show that abandonment or abuse before the age of 3 is linked to permanent inability to bond or feel empathy toward other humans.
IOW, a sociopath for life.

Might explain the yute violence and sex trafficking in the inner cities. Abandoned by fathers, abused/emasculated by single mothers. Kids relating to each other as objects to be used and discarded.
Democrat policies have resulted in an entire generation of sociopaths being turned loose in schools and on the streets.

We’ve tried raising a sociopath (adopted from foster care at 18 months) on a steady diet of discipline, morals, no TV, no computer or handheld devices, psychiatric care and behavioral counseling. This is what she was, is, and always will be and her mother and I take no responsibility.

After her third call to CPS for abuse, we are done. We sent her to live with her adopted father who will go out of his way to enabler her to become even more F’ed up then she already is. This is not just my opinion but the opinion of those mental healthcare providers that tried to provide her treatment for the past several years.
