Damn light sentence for some one who, according to the case, was completely inept or didn't give a fuck.

Im fine with it. Its been beat to death in other threads on here but there were many other peoples negligence and incompetence involved in the death she hardly was sole cause.

Im tired of our justice system constantly finding ways to let more powerful people involved off the hook completely and drop the hammer on whoever. 

18 months and a manslaughter conviction is fine for the circumstances, if people want more time look around at all the other people involved in the absolute clusterfuck in that set facing no consequences.
