Cyntoia Brown did not receive a fair trial. Cyntoia should not have been tried as an adult. She was a child living in an adult world and she was in a bad place. It was obvious that she was defending herself and she knew he was selfish, brutal and choked her on several occasions. She could have died. It was a question of self defence. We are not talking about pre-meditated murder. She was a frightened girl. In an abusive situation she should not have been in. A system of law that makes juveniles serve a life sentence in such cases needs to be overhauled and fairer laws put in place. Underage crime should be dealt with at the correct level. She was not an adult at the time she committed the crime. It was kill or be killed. I know what choice I would have made.
