Here is an overview of her torure This woman is literally the embodiment of sex trafficing, and the least that we can do is make things better for her. She gets executed on the 12th.

I am against the deathpenalty and for rehabilitative justice, but I am not supporting her with soothing words in a letter. I do not care about making her feel better. I do not care that she is the first woman in 50 years. I care about creating actual justice. If this was a thing to get her off death row I would support it. Not some letter writing campaign. I have zero sympathy for her actions but recognize how material conditions let to it. And I think we should focus on fixing those not writing letters.
I don't think this thread should have been featured in the first place.
If there was an immediate solution available for getting her off death row, I would have posted that. I don't think there is one. Alleviating the pain of victims of state violence is praxis, whether or not you like them personally.
