Yes, it is good to be reminded that sometimes these things work out the way they should. A friend of mine has recently been going through a situation that unfortunately went the other way. She had three friends over, and later in the evening they all go out drinking (but she decides to stay home). Eventually they end up drinking at a local beach, one of the drugs the other two and then beats one of them to death and passes out himself before finishing the beating on the other one. No one knows why he did it and he never had to make an attempt at explanation. He just plead out and got 9.5 years, 80% before he is eligible for parole. So I hope you'll pardon me if I wistfully wish one of the extra life sentences in your case could somehow be shifted over to this one.
