A woman in Austria has been found guilty of fatally infecting her neighbor with COVID-19 in 2021, her second pandemic-related conviction in a year, according to local media

A judge sentenced the 54-year-old on Thursday to four months’ suspended imprisonment and an 800-euro fine ($886.75) for grossly negligent homicide.

Imagine going to court for 3 years trying to get your loved ones murderer to face consequences, you win, and they get off with a 800 dollar fine.

You know, I was here thinking it may have been something that the headline missed as to why she got off lightly to understand her position.

But the woman’s doctor told police that the defendant had tested positive with a rapid test and told him that she “certainly won’t let herself be locked up" after the result

Nope, she’s just a cunt.

Agreed. The headline made it sound like the deceased person was injected or something.

She also has a prior conviction for intentionally spreading COVID.

Best I can do is $3.50
