On the morning of Aug. 6, 2013, the Lower Merion mother took a prescription sedative, swigged champagne, and filled a plastic cup with whiskey as she headed out the door.
Then she strapped her 2-year-old son into his loosely fastened car seat in the back of her Toyota Prius and set out to drive him to day care. At Spring Mill Road and Morris Avenue in Bryn Mawr, Williams-Earle sped through a stop sign and slammed into a flower delivery van.
Its 72-year-old driver died at the scene.
That is not one but multiple premeditated wrong decisions. She did those things before she was going to drive a car, not after a night of partying but in the morning. She even brought along her child, who was also injured.
What was her sentence?

Judge William R. Carpenter [...] sentenced Williams-Earle to nine to 23 months.
If that's not a pussy pass then what is?
She is portrayed as having made amends, and the journalist portrays her as a saint in the first paragraph - this poor woman, isn't she the victim here? Think about what's best for her children!
But in her defense, it is still not her fault:
Quote:Quote:
At her March trial, her lawyer had argued that although she was under the influence of alcohol and drugs, she only crashed because she turned to retrieve a piece of food for her fussy toddler in the backseat.
"Her running that stop sign and causing that accident was caused by the distraction," lawyer Christian Hoey said.
Blaming it on the baby. What a despicable cunt.
Edit:
Looking for a photo I found this article. A textbook example of the female-centric apologetics you always see after a women - no, a mother - is mildly punished for severe wrongdoing.

My instincts (and I do not know her or even of her), is this is a person who would not survive jail. And what good is justice if it creates more motherless children?
Loving fathers that couldn't make child support should just fuck off to jail. But a woman that killed an innocent man under the influence of alcohol and narcotics driving recklessly is a victim. What happened to her and why was no one listening, or listening closely, to this woman
in crisis?
