No Catchy Headline Today, Sorry

Sonia Robertson gets long prison term for stabbing, biting, shoplifting attempt at Kmart


The dehumanization is so complete that Robertson doesn't even merit a gendered pronoun. It's coldness combined with proper sentence structure that worries me most, because these are the people who vote.
