    The fact that she was in prison does make us better than her one thing good about her is that she learnt from her mistake because she even studied from prison and you can see her outlook of life is completely positive and forward looking to do a public speaking to educate others, the other thing i know for sure about a woman is that once she can burn and commit to mend her ways she will be far better than many men who never went through what she went through I don't know her personally but u see a good person when u see one and this girl is a good human being with a potential also we don't know what personal circumstances that drove her to do that sometimes girls take family problems to personal and volunteer to do something about it, only to find she is in a mess but God knows this girl will go places lastly WE MUST STOP JUDGING OTHER PEOPLE TOO HARD AS IF THEY DON'T DESERVE FORGIVENESS she is member of society who went astray all we can do is motivate her not call her names she never played victim but she wants us to know tha she is sorry and we must accept her as our daughter and sister
