I thought that this headline was a joke when I saw it. It turns out that it wasn't.

Before Katie Layne Quackenbush opened fire in the early morning hours of Aug. 26, 2017, she was arguing with Gerald Melton. He had been awakened by exhaust fumes and music from Quackenbush’s Porsche SUV, according to the Metro Nashville Police Department.

Melton later testified that Quackenbush asked him if he "wanted to die tonight.”

Melton said he was walking away from Quackenbush’s vehicle when she drew a gun from her purse, exited the SUV and fired two shots. Quackenbush then drove with a passenger to a Taco Bell before returning home.

Neither Quackenbush nor her passenger initially reported the shooting, police said. Instead, a person who found Melton called for help.

Melton, who was 54 at the time, survived but underwent at least three surgeries due to his injuries.

So now you're thinking this was a clear cut case of a privileged white woman who victimized a homeless man. But you're wrong.
It was the white woman that is the victim here.

"This has been the worst experience of my life, but I'm grateful that I had it, because it has changed me so dramatically to the core," Quackenbush, now 32, said Thursday.

After a two-day trial in April, Quackenbush was convicted of reckless endangerment, which is a misdemeanor.

A judge sentenced her to 11 months and 29 days of probation Thursday morning, ending the controversial yearslong case.

It was the worst experience of HER life, you see. Because this was about HER.
And just because she tried to kill a guy who posed absolutely no danger to her doesn't mean that she should have been convicted of attempted murder.
She drove a Porsche for eff sake, and he didn't have a car at all.

She said her mugshot went viral online after her arrest. Quackenbush also said she endured public ridicule, was spit on and received death threats. She also found it difficult to find work and get accepted into college. She described it as having "one foot in purgatory and the other in real life."

There you go. Quackenbush has been shunned by society. Unlike that homeless guy she shot. Isn't that punishment enough?
I'll just add a few more random items.
