Woman Cited as Example of Unfair Sentencing Released From Tennesee Prison

VOA News

   A Tennessee woman upheld as an example of unfair sentencing was
   released from prison Wednesday morning. Cyntoia Brown was over a decade
   into a life sentence for killing a man as a 16-year-old. She said she
   was a sex trafficking victim at the time.

   Support from prominent celebrities including Rihanna and Kim Kardashian
   West thrust Brown's case into the national conversation in 2017, with
   millions of social media users calling for her release with the viral
   hashtag #FreeCyntoiaBrown.

   [1]did we somehow change the definition of #JUSTICE along the way??
   cause..... Something is horribly wrong when the system enables these
   rapists and the victim is thrown away for life! To each of you
   responsible for this child's sentence I hope to God you don't have
   children, because this could be your daughter being punished for
   punishing already! #FREECYNTOIABROWN #HowManyMore
