I say if you're illegal, you kill someone (especially in this case because she was drunk behind the wheel and they caught her trying to flee to Mexico) we should invoke the immediate death penalty, not wait 10 years in the State Motel but the following day, you're guilty beyond a shadow of a doubt, you killed someone, AND you're illegal... goodbye.
The death penalty was not an option, I doubt it will ever be an option, if it was a option then I'd be for it in this case based on the facts that she killed someone and she is here illegally.

Unfortunately we don't live under a good ruleset, we live under a liberal ruleset and in this case I'm glad she got some punishment. I bet the looper pardons her or she gets out before her term is up.
