A Sydney woman who murdered a pedestrian for throwing cheeseballs at her car, has been jailed until at least 2027.

In giving Sarah May Ward a minimum sentence of 18 years and nine months and a maximum of 25 years, a judge said she used her car as a weapon when she ran Eli Westlake down in June 2008.

The 21-year-old was with his brother Joel and friends, walking home from a night out in Sydney's north.

With time already served she will be eligible for parol in March 2027.

She can't exactly claim self-defense.

Maybe it was sharp cheddar.

Perhaps she was annoyed by the fact that there was no bong accompanying the cheeseballs, and as such, DU honor, such as it is, must be upheld.

Impossible.  DUmmies have no honor.  They'd turn on one another for the slightest provocation, or no provocation at all.

Which is why I included the "such as it is" caveat.  What they consider honorable, we consider detestable and loathsome.
