Saw an episode of Snapped the other day on Oxygen Network and it featured Courtenay Savage (AMW direct capture #1033.) She has also shown up on Discovery Network's I Almost Got Away With It and a show called Women behind bars. After watching her on all three of them, I can tell you she's exactly where she needs to be. She still has a LOT of anger towards her ex-business partner and thinks shooting numerous times into a house where you know there are people inside isn't attempted murder and that since no one died (sheer luck) that she didn't deserve to be put on AMW or get the long prison sentence she got. In her mind, she is the victim and what she did was perfectly justifiable. No remorse at all from her. The 20 year sentence she got isn't long enough to protect the public from someone like this. |

Yeah I agree, she never seemed to have any remorse for what she did. When you shoot into an occupied dwelling, whether you meant to kill your target or not (and I call b.s. since if I remember correctly she claimed she was just shooting into the house and wasn't trying to kill her) you don't know who's in there. This is how little kids get killed by stray bullets all the time.

You aren't wrong, she still claims she was just trying to scare her ex business partner and her mother and grandmother are on board with that logic.
Seeing them on these programs certainly explains why she won't take responsibility for anything she's done, not when you have family members who freely admitted to helping her while she was a fugitive and have likely been making excuses for her actions her whole life. Someone should tell them some of the bullets she fired literally missed people in the house by inches, as did pieces of glass from mirrors that were shattered from her bullets. To watch her and her family downplay that and the fear she put her victims through angers me to no end. I wish she had gotten more time, as I think she is one of the people who will be dangerous to others whether she's 28, 30 or 52 (the age she will be at under her current release date.)
The only good thing is that she will be on probation, and given her attitude, I don't think it will take long for her to violate it, let's just hope no one is hurt when she does. |

I was recently watching her walk of shame, and she was like that even when she was captured. This is what she told the AMW camera:
"Enjoying yourself? Want to know the truth? I'm the real victim here."
Thankfully AMW got her caught pretty quickly - I think she was nabbed less than 24 hours after her profile.
