Gov. Hallam thank you for restoring faith in our justice system.
She was not wrong she was raped
ler me fix that headline. The man didnt pay her to have sex. The man payed her kidnapper to rape her. She was 16 and being held against her will. The man did NOT have sex with her! The man RAPED her!
Well done
Why wait til August? That’s 8 months away!?!
Very soon She will kill a Teenage Client,arguing he is too young to have sex with her; now that she is 31.
I have a hard time seeing that young girl thrown in jail for killing the pond scum that deserved it. I'm glad she will be free.

Everyone should just watch the Kill Bill trilogy, then check themselves over the mountain of data about women and why/when they commit violence.

She deserves it and I'm happy for her and I believe she'll continue to do just fine on the outside
That’s Good if only she donated to Democrats first she wouldn’t have spent any time in prison
The power of the People. When we unite and use our voices, things happen... Today we got one, but the work is not complete... CyntoiaBrown
I thank you Governor for being a 'Good Man'. I don't know your politics and I don't care. Your good deed speaks volumes of you.
This makes me so happy I could scream.
Im happy she served 15 years. That was a fair sentence cause she is NOT innnocent. Just over sentenced. Dont get it twisted.
Brave lady !!!
Don’t you hate judges who pick and choose who gets to be protected under the Stand Your Ground Law? Good job 👏 Governor
As a Smyrna, TN native...I’m very glad this happened. I honestly didn’t think that it would.
It took them way too long to do it.
