[Magdalen] Execution...

[Lynn Ronkainen]

A sad interesting element to one who came late to this issue was the complexity of her death sentence for a crime she did not actually commit vs her boyfriend, the actual murderer who got life in prison. 
May she rest in peace

Not soon in the USA, if opinions in comment boxes are any indication
(I hope they're not, but...).

I even countered one "Kill her now" comment with "An eye for an eye,
then?" and they came back immediately with the reply, "Absolutely...an
eye for an eye."

We've got a message to spread, clearly.
