Public outrage on social media
“She should be taken directly to the public prosecutor”. “Shit! girls of nowadays are scary”, “Today’s girls who are like bounty hunters will show us everything”, “I thought a new year was going to change things, but things seems even worse now”, “This is what happens when efforts to correct juvenile delinquency are ignored.
