At a public hearing on SB91 held this spring by Sen. Anna MacKinnon, Anchorage DA Skidmore confirmed, in response to public remarks made by this murder victim's mom, that SB91 did, indeed, create an "unintended" loophole for the murderer in this case, allowing parole eligibility so soon for such a serious crime.  Skidmore said the intent is to fix that problem in new legislation but apologized that it would not help the mother of this murder victim.  So yes, this case is yet another example of the inconsideration for victims and for public safety that naive SB91 proponents showed.  Eligibility for parole in 14 years for this murder is not even close to reaffirmation of societal norms.  All it reaffirms is Alaska's disgraceful place as one of the most violent states for women, home to DV apologists and minimizers, all talk and no action against men who terrorize and kill women.
