The Trial of Anu Singh in the Death of Jo Chinkway

Anu Singh was sentenced to ten years in prison, with a non-parole period of four years. This meant she would be eligible for release in a little over two years. The short sentence devastated the Chinkway family. Maria told the gathering media that Anu should have been sentenced to death by hanging. There was widespread doubt over the extent her mental illness played on her actions. She derived so much gratification from being at the center of this drama that the point was not to commit suicide.
