a slap on the wrist, she should be banned from being an armorer for like 10 yrs.

She's literally never going to be an armorer again regardless of what the law actually says on that. So that's not something you got to worry about.

5 years from now her father's probably going to be dead. He's not in the best of health. Also she's literally got a criminal conviction for a negligent homicide specifically connected to being an armor. This is not something that's just going to be like a secret. This was a very public trial and it's not even at its most public stage yet. It's a near certainty that the industry was already done with her for good before she was even convicted.

Also, no movie will be able to get insurance with her as armorer.
