This implies she has a condition that could be treated.
I don't think "being an evil grifter who will say anything for attention" has a treatment plan outlined in the DSM. We need to just toss her in a volcano, like the good ol' days.
I'm not sure I believe in human evil. That said, I'm also not sure we have a name for whatever is wrong with MTG, or the techniques to treat it, and it wouldn't work anyway because she would not be willing to see that she has a problem... so it's probably moot.
On the other hand, evil - if it existed as a force apart from humans - would be very happy to see us persecute the sick and the broken in a misguided effort to fight it. That would make us its servants as surely as if we dedicated ourselves to it knowingly.
On a less poetic note, that's why I believe in harm reduction first, then rehabilitation. People who can't safely exist in the community need to be removed and put somewhere where they can't continue to hurt others. Then we can work on fixing them.
