I agree with you completely. I'm a huge Aden fan, but even I have to agree. If Aden got out of going to jail because he wasn't in the right state of mind, because of his past, how can they send Melody to jail? She was extremely troubled as well. And for what would they send her? For closing the doors. When she closed those doors, I'm sure she didn't intend on harming everyone. She had no way of knowing Kane was going to drive into the place, or that there would be an explosion later on, and everyone would be trying to escape. She was under the influence of drugs, she probably had no idea what closing the door meant. Yes, I think she needs help, probably in a nice retreat somewhere, but she certainly doesn't belong in a jail cell. She needs help, she doesn't need to be thrown in jail.
I agree. As far as I'm aware, smoking one joint (I assume that's what it was) isn't exactly jail-worthy. In certain countries, you only get imprisoned if you are dealing or you are in possession of a high quantity. If Melody had five boxes full of marijuana stuffed under her bed, then please do send her to jail. But she used drugs once, maybe twice. A high chunk of teenagers do it. If all of them were sent to jail, then all prisons and detention centers would be overrun, and there would be no teenagers in school, thus having no skilled workforce in five years time
A warning and time in a retreat would suffice.
