Murder is now okay if you feel "distraught."

Defense lawyer Thomas Kokonowski told the court his client had been a model prisoner and leader behind bars. Hachiyanagi wrote an apology, but he acknowledged it was not the right time to read it. He suggested the attack was due to his client struggling with anger. She was told at a young age that the feeling was shameful, he said.
“My client had an anger that she was not familiar with,” he said. “She was distraught, to say the least.”
So, anger is shameful, but murder isn't?
Oh. Okay, then, Counselor. Next case ...

She needs the rope.

Well, attempted murder. Apparently her anger was so shameful that the victim survived a four hour attack. Sounds like they're at least going to lock her up for a good long while.
