She'll get out when she's 97. Michigan is tough on grannies.

Quote:
PONTIAC, Mich. – A 75-year-old Detroit-area woman who killed her grandson expressed remorse Thursday but repeatedly accused his parents of dumping a troubled boy at her doorstep during a desperate, emotional plea to avoid a prison sentence that likely means death behind bars.

The judge wasn't swayed, sending Sandra Layne away for at least 22 years and capping a wrenching case that revealed family strife, adolescent rebellion and fatal consequences.

Joanthan Hoffman was shot six times, including twice in the back, last spring in Oakland County's West Bloomfield Township. Layne, a former teacher and real estate agent, said she shot him out of fear during a physical altercation, but a jury in March rejected her claim of self-defense.

Sounds like a failure on all parts of the family; she should have booted him long ago. Regardless, what she did was wrong. Hopefully she gets out before she passes.

At 75 she won't make 85 doing state time up there. She should have shot herself after she shot him.

Why would you hope for that? I hope this murderer takes her last breath alone in a 6'x8' cell.
