Cherie Walker will spend the rest of her life behind bars for letting her husband impregnate her 11-year-old daughter, whom they forced to give birth without medical care.
It also said that he was charged with the same 6 counts of child neglect though. So either the article was unclear on his actual sentence also being multiple consecutive life sentences or the charges of neglect didn’t all stick for some reason.
I don’t have any specifics but it could be that the father was not in a position to actually be responsible for her care at some point. Maybe the mother kicked him out or something. I’m just speculating, though. No idea really.
It’s simple. In the USA, and many other counties, rape of any sort by a man isn’t as bad as anything a woman/mother might do wrong. I didn’t read the article however I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that the husband was also beating, raping or otherwise abusing his wife.

You are clearly quite ignorant of the actual statistics when it comes to gender disparities in sentencing for the same crimes.
