Is person who wrote this article really trying to act like she wasn’t a bad person and “we didn’t hear her side” like stfu. Don’t try and defend her or her action “one fateful moment, shouldn’t define us” it sure as hell should when it gets an innocent person killed. A innocent child. Get real. The article screams I’m racist but I won’t say it I’ll just write an article and hide it in it

I think there is importance in viewing how a person thinks and acts regardless of their actions so we can see why they think that way and maybe ulterior motives they posses/possessed. With a critical lense, insight can be gained from even the most despicable people. However I think it's gross how negligent this article is. Yes, none of us knew her, but we do know she lied and had many inconsistencies in her story and even went so far as to compare the "trauma" of being touched on the hand by the child (something that has never been proven and is largely contested) to said child being ruthlessly manged and murdered. She continued to spread the same lies and attitude that caused that little boy to be tortured until his gruesome death. Your neutral side on the issue doesn't come off as enlightening or smart but rather callous and ignorant.
