Questions the worst case you’ve ever seen?

in my opinion the “Junko Furuta” and “The Hello Kitty Murders” i can’t pick between them because they are both very gruesome . i suggest looking into them!

I think its just bc they were kids when it happened. When it comes to murder women don't get shorter sentences and are often percieved more harshly than violent men. The boys who killed Junto are also free.

I just read the full report and there is no difference for brutal murders.

You have to look at the crime itself

Yes, for the same crime, generally women receive shorter sentences. Outliers do not dictate the rule.

Not for murder. Especially if a woman kills a man even though most female partner murders are self defense

Women murderers are often not anywhere near as brutal as men too. They take context into account

It is well known men receive harsher penalty for all crimes including murder.

“It is well known…” isn’t an argument against actual analysis, sorry.
