However she did get a just compensation offer for the place much more than it was worth.
That isn’t the point and you know it.
So in your world, private property goes to the highest bidder whether the owner wants to sell it or not as long as it is fair market value, is that it? Really?
You really should think about that for a moment...
A piece of property is "worth" the price at which a willing buyer and willing seller agree to exchange the property. If it was a price at which she, the owner of the property, was not willing to sell, then no, the offer was not "much more than it was worth."
You or I (or anyone else) might have taken the offer, but it was her property, and, last I checked, we respect property rights around here.
