It's easy to want someone severely punished, it's hard to say they need help.
Is it better to punish them or take measures to prevent it from happening in the future?
To be honest she could get 5 years in prison and I wouldn't bat an eye, but it's not right. It doesn't solve anything. It's for the greater good to deal with her issues now before they get worse.
If she spends 5 years in prison going untreated (assuming she survives 5 years in prison) do you really think she'd be rehabilitated? Honestly, she'd probably go nuts from being in that atmosphere without any treatment. She'd probably just get out of prison and go do something worse.
