My heart goes out for the young lady convicted of the murder of a housekeeper on the North Shore (“Jury gives North Shore murderer chance for parole,” Star-Advertiser, Aug. 5).
Her mother and grandmother then came to court to plead for a reduced sentence. But what about the lady who was killed and had a young daughter? I know most people, if given a second chance, would want to go over the mistakes they made, but that is not always possible. That is why we have laws, so you know if you do something bad, you will have to pay the consequences.
Why can’t we all just be nice to each other and treat other people as we would want to be treated? A little aloha wouldn’t be bad in our lives.
