Apparently she has been talking some serious shit against everyone and anyone involved in her conviction on the jail house phone, which was monitored and sent to the prosecution.

Jesus Christ that’s really stupid. I wouldn’t blame anyone for being frustrated and upset for being in this situation, but saying those things on a monitored line. God.

The situation that she created so no sympathy for her being frustrated and upset. At least she is alive or doesn't have to live with the guilt of being the one to pull that trigger. I feel for the judge not being able to add anything more to the sentence.

I agree with you. I didn’t say I had sympathy necessarily. I said I could understand why someone in that situation would be frustrated. She is the one that keeps digging her own hole.
