Mexican woman sentenced to prison for killing rapist.

Roxana Ruiz, a Mexican woman who killed a man while defending herself from rape, has been sentenced to over six years in prison. Despite the court acknowledging that she had been raped, it found her guilty of homicide with "excessive use of legitimate defense." Ruiz's legal defense called the decision "discriminatory" and vowed to appeal. The case has sparked outrage from feminist groups and experts, who say it highlights Mexico's poor record of bringing perpetrators of sexual violence to justice and may discourage women from reporting gender-based violence or defending themselves.
