This is part of a plea bargain. She had a choice of three months in jail or one month in jail and two months working a fast food job. She had a choice between a “normal” three month sentence or this “unusual” sentence.
One could make the argument that working fast food is less cruel than spending 3 months in Jail. If you claim that fast food is worse then she kind of deserves to make that realization herself.
I thought we had laws against cruel and unusual punishment.
It’s an opt-in arrangement.

And yet we allow Chipotle to treat its workers like that anyway.
