I mean, makes sense. But considering her attempts to cancel the meeting didn’t even work, I’d be surprised if she gets the 10 year sentence for this.
She worked against oil company and private greed. Totally justifies the crime.
If only she was sensible enough to commit crimes against humanity, she should have been given only slap on thw wrist.
Nah, she should have created a corporation that did the crime. Worst case it that they get acquired after years of litigation with her profiting off the fame and jumping out with a golden parachute.
I hope she won’t get a sentence, but I am not a lawyer for expressing an informed legal opinion. The point I make is that we know in the meantime that the oil industry has been downplaying climate change and its related health issues for decades, although they new about it from their own research in the 1980s already. And no one faces any consequences. As a legal layman I can’t say whether that’s legal, but I don’t feel it’s right.
Victimless crime
