Ummm, errr, how did you arrive at any other conclusion? Oh wait, that's right, once someone is sentenced, some big guy named Thor grabs the shovel from the maintenance shed and whacks her in the back of the head. Right?
Any trial involves lots of court time and paperwork. A restraining order alone is $200 and there's barely anything involved. So we're talking about paying lawyers, jurors, judges, court workers, and more for each individual trial. Then she'll file an appeal, right? Probably end up with the same sentence. Appeal again, until she no longer can.
Putting someone to death costs well over one million tax paying dollars. Life in prison is around $250K, depending on how old the prisoner is of course.
