Husband dead...wife gets 6 months....
A separate justice system for men and women...
EDMONTON -- A city woman admitted yesterday she punched her common-law husband several times, knocked him down and broke his nose after he accused her of cheating on him.
But, she never killed him.
Julie Starr, 40, was handed a six-and-a-half-month jail sentence, which has already been served by time spent in pretrial custody, after pleading guilty to a reduced charge of assault causing bodily harm.
Starr had initially been charged with aggravated assault after a battered Andrew Rademacher, 50, was found lying in a pool of blood on the side of the road near an abandoned home at 95 Street and 107A Avenue on June 29.
He died in hospital five days later

How much are you willing to bet that we don't hear anything about this from the Left?
Equal Rights and Fair Treatment swings both ways.
I hope someone is acting in order to ensure justice was actually served.
"Rademacher's family said the couple had lived on the streets together for the past three to four years and had a stormy, booze-fuelled on-and-off relationship."
That explains it! The judge must have thought she'd already suffered enough. You know, all that lefty stuff about her deprived past and all. What a joke the courts are!
What bullshit. I can't believe so many people still say with a straight face that women are disadvantaged in a "patriarchal" society.
At every stage of the Western criminal justice system, from arrest, to prosecution, to conviction, to sentencing, women are treated more favorably than men for the same crimes. This is just another example.
