Only 5 years for murdering her husband. With an exercise yard and gym. Okay, sure. That isn't completely bullshit or anything because every woman is a victim in one way or another!

After the denial of her appeal before the highest appellate court in the state, Barbara Sheehan will likely spend the next three and a half years at the Albion State Correctional Facility in Rochester, New York. Sheehan was acquitted of murder charges in the 2008 shooting death of her husband, former NYPD sergeant Raymond Sheehan, but faces prison time for a secondary gun charge.

Went back and read the article, she's only facing a secondary gun charge. Not for shooting a police sergeant or anything.

A couple of others pointed this out. This was the sixth or seventh article I read about her and I thought she'd been convicted. That doesn't change anything though, the crime and punishment remain the same.

Sorry everyone is shitting on you, OP. I just meant to say it's stupid that a freakin' gun charge is all she got slapped with. Killing a cop is usually a pretty heavy sentence, so I think it's silly that she was acquitted of such a large charge.
