A woman who killed an 87-year-old Broadway vocal coach by pushing her to the ground in New York City pleaded guilty Wednesday and will be sentenced to eight years in prison, the district attorney said.
Lauren Pazienza, now 28, shoved Barbara Maier Gustern to the ground from behind in the Chelsea neighborhood on March 10, 2022, officials said at the time.
It’s not that simple. Women get life in jail like anyone else in a lot of cases.
The consistent factor you’re missing here is not one of sex, but one of privilege and wealth.
Simply put rich people can afford better lawyers, and in rarer cases are more connected on the inside of the justice system itself.
