I don't know, but it would surprise me if the DA's office went soft on their recommendation unless there were additional mitigating circumstances.
I guess it's not completely implausible that she was assigned an ADA that was relatively young and a guy. Privately he would have had the same reaction most here have had.
It's just that if a case makes the news, it's virtually automatically required for a senior prosecutor to have to sign off on any plea arraignment the ADA may be willing to offer.
Sometimes, how good or harsh a deal available can simply rest on if the prosecutor assigned is having a great day or a shitty day.
Sometimes the plea offer is such a sweetheart deal, the judge will look at it and then up at the DA assigned with just this look of a you ****ing joking me?
Sometimes the judge will call them out in open court, and they do have discretion to say they won't sign off on the agreement, but that's rare.
