Step 1) Lock her up because what she did was wrong.
Step 2) Investigate the problem that stressed her out, chase down the issue that she was blowing a whistle about, fix the election system to stop future fraud.
But, of course, only Step 1 will be followed. We now have a society in which whistleblowers are locked up and nothing gets fixed.
I’d give her a pass to learn who instructed her to take such actions.
This it’s clear why there’s so much ‘smoke’ obscuring facts and distracting observers of such cases.
