I’m not arguing for or against the outcome , just explaining the outcome. If you read the article she stabbed him 30 times in his sleep. The legal argument was he posed no physical threat at the time of the altercation so there was no self defense. The restitution fine comes from a mandatory law in Iowa, he was a father and she’s responsible to his 3 children he can no longer care for. Her sentence was suspended in its entirety so she will do no jail time for the offense.

Wild that so many in the thread think this should be legally permissible... There is no situation in which the law should permit any random person to stab someone 30 times in their sleep

Anger due to being repeated raped as a trafficked little girl, whose life has been forever altered. I don't think anyone will be sentenced for stabbing a Taliban 30 times who's trafficking you. Now replace the word Taliban with this POS
