Well, fuck.

She won her appeal. She’s getting a new damn trial.

Please say a prayer for all of Alex’s family today. They’re going to need all the strength they can muster.

I’ve not read exactly what happened before. I just read through the ruling and I think it is bullshit. What they are saying, in “Mag cuts through the crap” speak is that Alex’s life is not worth the life of the defendant. Wishing the family strength and justice.

Well, since true justice in this world would mean that the “caretaker” (if you can call her that) would herself be beaten to death, I am praying for the closest thing to justice that can be allowed.

In case you didn’t notice, I have less than zero tolerance for those who commit crimes against children.

That is just awful. The ordeal of going through that again is just cruel for the family. My thoughts and prayers are being sent their way.

If ever there was an occasion to drop the f-bomb, this is it.

What?! Absolutely ridiculous. I can only hope that she gets what she deserves in the end.
