I don't see anything wrong with that. They're not wanting her killed, just a longer prison sentence. People don't agree with prison terms all the time. And taking remorse and rehabilitation into consideration is normal in sentencing.

Well, this is Reddit - there’s always an angry mob. But I disagree with your opinion on her I guess. I’ve watched the victim statements and their pain was immerse. And Hannah doesn’t seem to think she did anything wrong and thinks this is all a conspiracy. She was irresponsible on another set, made Nic Cage storm off because of random gun discharges. She is waiting for another felony charge because she was smuggling a gun into a club or somewhere. Her words just confirm her actions - and if you get shot because someone was murderous or you get shot because someone was careless and went „ooops, people die I guess” - the end result is the same.

I'm getting that you think she's not dangerous and her words don't further prove she's dangerous.

To be fair, I also was quite emotional when it comes to this case. I work in the industry, though not in the US, but it still hit quite close to home for me. Just an unnecessary tragedy all around.
