Murderous Maid

The Indonesian maid who killed the 12 year old special needs child may escape the death sentence!  I am really upset just thinking that a person who kills another may just get away with it by their age.  When the maids come to Singapore, they are supposed to be 23 years old as required by Singapore laws governing maids.

My personal feel is that this minimum age crap and the entry tests are the 2 most useless criteria.  Its useless as most of the time, the maids lie on their age.  Some of them are as young as 15 and pose as 23 just to come to Singapore to work.  When they are here, there is hardly any household chore that she can actually do smoothly and independently. 

Imagine the child loses her life and this maid get away with murder!  When I saw the ChannelNewsAsia newsflash around noon that this maid is a lot younger than her age, I got a feeling that she will not get the death penalty!  Darn!!  I felt it should be a life for a life no matter what or who.  It should be exactly the way she killed the innocent child.  If she dont die after that, then that's her luck.
