DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa authorities say an 18-year-old sex trafficking victim who pleaded guilty to killing a man she said raped her escaped from a women's center where she was serving her probation sentence.
Pieper Lewis was seen walking out of the building at the Fresh Start Women's Center in Des Moines shortly after 6:15 a.m. Friday, and at some point that day her GPS monitor was cut off, according to a probation violation report.
A warrant was issued for Lewis' arrest and the probation report asked for her deferred judgment to be revoked and have her original sentence imposed, KCCI reported. She could face up to 20 years in prison.
Prosecutors had called the probation sentence she was given in September merciful for a teen who endured horrible abuse, although some questioned the $150,000 restitution she was ordered to pay. A GoFundMe campaign raised over $560,000 to cover the restitution and pay for her other needs.
Polk County Judge David Porter told Lewis that her probation sentence “was the second chance you asked for. You don’t get a third," the Des Moines Register reported.
If Lewis had successfully completed five years of closely supervised probation her prison sentence would have been expunged.
how do they figure a piece of shit like that is worth 150k that's crazy
if anything she should have been awarded ten times that for killing a child rapist
This country is so fucking crazy when Amerikan pigs can get away with killing and harassing people with no repercussions, but a fucking teenager who escaped being sex trafficked can't be left the fuck alone. "Um ackshully sweaty all human life is valuable and-" :stalin-gun-1: :stalin-gun-2:
It's some statuatory thing. It was declared a homicide or murder or something and the law has a statute requiring the perpetrator to pay restitution to the victim's family. And since America is an incredibly cruel and stupid police state they didn't find an excuse to waive it.
The prosecutor likely carries a lot of blame here -- they generally have final say over how cases get charged. They're also the ones who can decide to decline charging a case at all.

what was the first chance motherfucker? :stalin-gun-1::stalin-gun-2:
the first chance was she should simply have not been sex trafficked if she didn't want to be punished by the law
The great liberal reformist MLK once said using violence is always wrong no matter what
I love linking libs to the speech where he's like "I'm not a fan of riots but you keep making them necessary"
He talks about it in other speeches too, I like this one because he prefaces it by addressing the escalation of protests. If nonviolent methods can just be ignored, the people will escalate until they've commanded your attention. Riots and looting come out of this because violating property rights is the height of obscenity in this shit country.

wall
Death to America
a married father of two
Fuck offfffffff I don't want to hear about how rapist lives matter
I want to hope but I’d doubt she would be able to pull a Robert F. Williams.
hope he woke up during it and got to appreciate what was happening to him
If Biden was any good he’d issue a federal pardon for her
Up to 20 years for a "crime" she did when she was fifteen against her fucking thirty-seven year old rapist. Fuck the fuck off :amerikkka:
You really need to work on remembering to CW and NSFW sensitive subjects. Like not just throwing it on the end of the title as an afterthought (put them in the front of the title sentence.), but if you're also including sections of the article in the post body with sensitive sections you can omit them by editing them out and throwing some ellipsis.
example:

Edit: Also I'll unlock it for a few hours and monitor how it goes. If nothing more pops up, It'll stay unlocked.
Xi just send the nukes, this country truly is Babylon, erase it from fucking existence.
