“This was not reckless driving. This was murder,” the judge said before she read out Mackenzie Shirilla’s verdict Monday afternoon.

    Wow the way she’s crying is disgusting, she’s just sorry for herself not for the deaths she caused. No remorse, only regret for getting sentenced

      How do you know that? I don’t know about you but I’ve done things in anger that I felt genuine remorse for later.

      Never killed anyone though, I suppose.

          You mean legitimate tears from someone who had trauma from successfully defending himself against attackers? Did you watch any of the trial?

        Because of her intent and crimes- she had genuine murderous intent as the judgement said. She seemed very cruel and unhinged according to the article and presented evidence and the video showed her crying due to the judgement.

          It’s been two years since she murdered those people. She could easily feel true remorse now.

          I’m in no way trying to excuse her actions, I just think it’s worth trying to do some level of empathizing for people. Not that what she did was in any way justified, but I can’t imagine trying to live with myself if I got angry enough to murder someone.

            It’s all speculation and assumptions anyway ! We can see different things. I feel disgust and you may see someone possibly showing remorse. We just don’t know for sure either way.

            Have a good day fellow fediperson

            Crying when the sentence was read doesn’t say anything one way or the other about her feeling or not remorse because that specific moment is about what’s going to happen to her, not about others, so she’s crying for herself.

            She almost certainly feels regret (which is entirelly about the consequences for herself), but it’s unclear that she feels remorse (which is about the consequences for others of her actions).

      This is a bit unfair, though I didn’t watch the trial in full. We have no idea if she cried for the other lives or not.

        It’s unfair of me, but it is my perception and my opinion which is only based in observation yup.
