Thanks brianna - I agree. Guilty or not, it's this kind of hatred for someone based on hearsay and fame that, really, as much as we'd like to say the opposite, makes it difficult for them to get a fair trial when people are looking to find them guilty to set an example. Perhaps she was guilty, perhaps she wasn't - and she probably was - I find it disturbing that any person would be made an "example" that celebreties are not above the law. This opens the door wide open to an innocent person being found guilty.
Either way, I think 20 years is definitely too harsh a penalty for her crimes. Prison is (ideally) meant for rehabilitation not punishment, and a couple years at most I think will get the message across just fine. Hopefully the judge will see it that way as well when sentencing.
