Questão jurídica principal
Whether the cantonal court abused its discretion in sentencing X. to 6 years for intentional homicide by omission.
Decisão extraída
Yes. Given the very serious objective culpability and only moderately diminished responsibility, a 6-year sentence at the bottom of the ordinary range was not defensible.
Fundamentação extraída
The court held that reduced culpability must be assessed as a reduction of blameworthiness, not by a fixed mathematical reduction of a hypothetical base sentence. Even with mitigating personal factors, the sentence imposed did not reflect the seriousness of the offense and the offender's duties as mother.
