minus-squareBarrierWithAshes@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down1·2 years agoI think this fits the bill of cruel and unusual punishment.
minus-squareIanSomnia@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 years agoWhat’s cruel about it? It seems akin to community service which is handed down as legal punishment all the time.
minus-squareBarrierWithAshes@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down1·2 years agoIts working in chipotle. Quite possibly the worst fast food place in the states. She should be assigned to work in a prison commissary instead. Much more humane.
minus-squareTheGalacticVoid@lemm.eeOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 years agoAFAIK the punishment isn’t working at a Chipotle, it’s at a fast food place. She also had a choice between working and jail, so I doubt “cruel and unusual” would have standing.
