LTE: Battered women will suffer

The legal team that defended Clara Harris has set a dangerous precedent. They rationalized murder, and in so doing, have damaged the cause of battered women everywhere.

Surely every man who beats, maims or kills an unfaithful wife or girlfriend can now point to the Harris case to mitigate his guilt and lessen his punishment. These people are not only wrong, they are dangerous.
