Reading yesterday that these two girls if they were to plead guilty, would have their sentences more than halved to 6-7 years each. One of the girl's fathers has even suggested to his daughter that pleading guilty is the best option here. Again this shows the callousness of the Peruvian system, because even if you aren't guilty, it's probably still the best option if caught to actually plead guilty anyway, as the chances of justice inside the courtroom are not great and then the accused is left with the burden of a 15 to 25 year sentence.
