I'm putting this in Off-Topic, but if it needs to be moved to Politics, a mod can move it.
I feel like this story didn't get a lot of coverage locally (or if it did I missed it). In June of 2020 a 15 year old killed a man that had raped her. This week she sentenced to probation only, but Iowa law requires that she pay $150,000 to the family of the person that was killed. A teacher started this gofundme for her both to repay the money and to help her get some education and start her life. I think it is a worthy cause.
