Justice at last

Finally, some good news.

The parents of a little girl who murdered their own daughter by refusing to provide adequate medical care because they'd rather sacrifice her at the altar of the pseudo-scientific crap known as homeopathy have been jailed.

While this is all nice and good, something tells me that the parents would have gotten off scot-free or gotten away with a lighter sentence if their excuse for murdering their daughter had been because they were following the orders of some imaginary god instead.

Considering the history of such cases, my cynicism is justified, isn't it?
