[QUOTE="Levistus's_Leviathan, post: 8218016, member: 7023887"] The fact that people will lie to make themselves look better does not negate the fact that there are people that have are actually not guilty of their crimes. Just because a ton of murderers claim that they're innocent doesn't mean that we should imprison the innocents. That's why we have the famous saying of "innocent until proven guilty". There are laws against kidnapping others. There are laws against torture. However, there is also the poorly named "[URL='https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/insanity_defense#:~:text=The%20federal%20insanity%20defense%20now,the%20wrongfulness%20of%20his%20acts']insanity defense[/URL]" that states that you are not guilty of a crime if you are not in control of your actions at the time. In a real court of law, I would suspect that Wanda's defense attorney would argue that though Wanda's powers are her actions, she did not have control of them and thus is not guilty of the crime. When did she change the Vision? She did threaten the military, but there is no proof that Wanda was aware of the torment she was putting through the people of Westview at the time, and SWORD did try to kill her. The beekeeper was early on when she obviously did not completely know what was going on, and if her powers are based off of her emotions (as is evident throughout this series and the movies), she would obviously have responded to a trespasser in her home with anger. Even then, she managed to protect Monica from harm. She does need therapy and training, but that will probably be further explored in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The show's finale would be a bit less dramatic if it ended with Wanda in therapy, IMO. That is likely going to be off-screen, if it does happen. You have seemed to have taken it upon yourself to prove Wanda's guilt, so I will ask you to present your case for her guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Prove that she is guilty of knowingly and willingly imprisoning and torturing the town of Westview. The burden of proof is on you. Wanda was suffering from grief and trauma, and her emotion-driven powers took control without her knowing what they were doing at first and created the Hex. [/QUOTE]
