She committed the crime; she should do the time.
And this is on topic? In fact, I would go as far as to say that a big reason so many denigrating comments have been made about her arrest/conviction is for the same reason you went through such effort on your post here, thereby making mine - very much "on-topic."

"King’s far-from monogamous lifestyle, like his binge-drinking, may fit albeit uncomfortably within his existing life story, but the suggestion—actually more than one—that he either actively tolerated or personally employed violence against any woman, even while drunk, poses so fundamental a challenge to his historical stature as to require the most complete and extensive historical review possible."
