Lauren Pazienza shoved 87-year-old Barbara Maier Gustern to the sidewalk in Manhattan last year, and Gustern later died.

A woman who killed an 87-year-old Broadway vocal coach by pushing her to the ground in New York City pleaded guilty Wednesday and will be sentenced to eight years in prison, the district attorney said.

Lauren Pazienza, now 28, shoved Barbara Maier Gustern to the ground from behind in the Chelsea neighborhood on March 10, 2022, officials said at the time.

    that’s exactly what i am saying lol.
    prison should be used much more conservitavely and be seen as a measure to protect the victim/public, not to punish the perpetrator.
