A Michigan woman has been sentenced to three to seven years in prison for opening fire at a McDonald's restaurant after workers twice failed to put bacon on her burgers.

Authorities say 30-year-old Shaneka Torres became angry in February 2014 when the first burger she ordered at the restaurant's drive-up station was missing bacon. She was offered a free meal, but bacon also wasn't added to a second burger order.

Police say she fired a shot through the restaurant. No one was injured.

A Kent County Circuit Court jury convicted her March 25. Judge Paul Sullivan on Tuesday sentenced her to one to five years for shooting at a building, plus two years for possessing a firearm during a felony.

Torres says she's sorry "but it's over and done with."

Thoughts?

For some reason, this part really bothers me:

"...Torres says she's sorry 'but it's over and done with.'"

It reads like she's not really remorseful, is thankful she'll have a roof over her head and food in her belly for the next 1-5 years, and will use a gun again the next time something in the real world doesn't go the way she'd like.

For that reason alone, if I was the judge, I'd give her the longest sentence to give her more time TO find genuine 'remorse' or simply to lengthen the time before she returns to jail, again.
