In the 11/18 hearing it was testified to that a therapist came to her home, almost daily.
That is a fact.
W8nc was sitting beside me at the hearing. She heard it as well.
Yes, I heard it too. They didn't say "almost daily for a few weeks in 2007", and they didn't say "almost daily ever since 2007", so it's probably something in between, but the implication was that it was ongoing and recent.
There has been no evidence that she is tickled with herself for going through with the murder, and no evidence that she is ashamed or sorry for it either. We probably shouldn't make any assumptions about her feelings about what she did until we have evidence or a statement from her.
IMO, I don't think she can be rehabilitated to the point where I'd be comfortable letting her out into society. There's no telling if 30 more years of therapy at the level that is available from MOs penal system would do her any more good than the last 2 years worth have done, but I seriously doubt it. True, what's available isn't top-notch, but then again it's tax-payer funded so you get what you get. We don't give criminals the best of the best, nor should we. Regardless of her psychological issues, she did commit a very serious crime and must suffer the consequences, like anyone else would. If rehab works, she'll be able to contribute to society within the prison system, if she so chooses.
Bigflaw, it was my understanding, from what I heard at the adult cert. hearing, that if she was tried strictly as a juvenile, she WOULD be let out at 21. If she is tried as an adult, the dual jurisdiction thing kicks in, and she'd be treated as a juvie during her incarceration, as much as possible (i.e. can't be held in a juvie facility because none are available for violent females, but would get juvie psyche care) until age 21. Then she would be re-evaluated and they would decide what to do with her at that point, regarding facility, psyche care, etc. In other words, the re-eval at 21 only applies to those held under dual-jurisdiction, which requires trial as an adult. I haven't looked it up or anything, but that's what I understood the judge and attornies to say.
All the above is IMHO.
