The only way I can see any relevance would be if the woman was going to get sentenced to death which would never happen in the UK. Motor based sentences are actually quite lax.

The fact that I'm morally grey doesn't have any impact of what I think of crime and punishment.

I just think it's interesting that you think people who have genuinely murdered one or more people should be protected but you'd feel fine about letting someone think they'd killed someone when they hadn't. Even if their sentence was light they'd have to live with it on their conscience for the rest of their lives.
