I just moved to Franklin county and have loved it so far. It has everything my family needs- close to the Appalachian trail, a bunch of major cities, and was affordable to buy in. The only downside was a lack of real estate inventory. Happy to answer any questions if you’re thinking Chambersburg/waynesboro/greencastle area. I heard a lot about how politically extreme it is here, but I haven’t felt it. I did come from Florida though lol

Three years is a long time.

That’s a bad comparison. 25 years for possession of weed is INSANE, and genuinely not really happening much anymore. I could go the other way and point to literal murderers and rapists receiving exactly zero time in jail. 3 years is really not a slap on the wrist.

Save yourself a lot of time and just move to Lancaster.

Relative to how other crimes are prosecuted it is a slap on the wrist. There are people spending 25+ years in prison for possessing weed: a product that is natural, not harmful, and legal in many states.

25 years. No reason to not give her full sentence like anybody else.

Absolutely. My ma moved out Philly to Bethlehem recently and I think that'd be a great place to live. Granted, I only visit ~4 times a year, but she loves it, as do a lot of my thirty-something friends.

It's a mistake to scratch off the Allentown area. The whole Lehigh Valley has gone through a massive resurgence that past ~decade, and I think it's wildly improved across the board. Bethlehem is becoming a great place for my mom to live and checks a lot of your boxes.

I'm not sure I agree with that. I think students here should have in state tuition to some of the more competitive schools in the state. And one of the two HBCUs.

Check out Jim Thorpe. Great outdoor action and a beautiful small town. Close to multiple hospitals

Spending a full 3 years behind bars is not a slap on the wrist. That’s still a long ass time to not have your freedoms, plus it obviously follows you after you get out. If you think she should have gotten a longer sentence that’s one thing, but it’s certainly not a slap on the wrist.
