Because every serial killer started out torturing and killing small animals (don't know if that is true, doubt it actually), it doesn't mean that anyone who in their youth tortured and killed small animals end up as serial killers.
Right as of now, she has killed a cat as I understand it. And she should be punished for that. But seriously, don't you think wishing that people die because they have killed a cat is a little harsh. I think it's a sound principle of the law only to punish the actions that a person HAS done, not the actions we think they WILL do.
Nevertheless, I have great difficulty distinguishing the cruelty of Cheyenne from the cruelty of you at the moment.

Killed a cat?? Brutally tortured and killed a cat. Kidnapped another animal for ransom, committed a robbery with a weapon. Yeah, she's a real sweetie.
You doubt that serial killers don't (almost habitually) start with small animals?? Do a little teensy tiny bit of research.
Meanwhile, perhaps the people of Denmark can take up a collection and move Ms. Cherry there ... set her up in a nice pet-sitting business. Or, what the hell, let her open a day care.
In this country, those who torture small animals, and who molest and/or murder children, don't last very long in prison anyway. Even if they don't have the death penalty imposed on them for their crimes, the other inmates frequently do the job for the state. That's really all I'm hoping for. I happen to believe, and very strongly, that those who torture and kill those who are physically weak or helpless should be gone.
You want her in your country .... by all means, take her!! There's a solution that just might work (except maybe for the pets of Denmark).
In fact, would you all mind very much if we sent all of our potential death penalty cases and repeat and violent offenders to live over there?? It would save us a TON of money on our prison costs ... think about it. You'd have all those new citizens with such an "interesting" background ... and we wouldn't have them anymore. It sounds like a marvelous idea to me.
