UPDATE: More insanity from Australia-Girl gets 3 months in jail for first offense
UPDATE: Her sentence was reduced on appeal so she won't go to jail. Finally some common sense is applied
Previously:
She wrote her name on a cafe wall with a marker. The cafe wants $200 AUD for restitution. And yet somehow this resulted in a 3-month jail sentence for Cheyene Back, a first offender. This cruel and unusual punishment, way out of proportion to the crime, is counterproductive in terms of social outcomes -- and not what one would expect from a civilized country. Did she even have a lawyer?
