I would love that as much as anyone, but does anyone here seriously believe this will happen?

Five years is the maximum sentence, which a person with no prior convictions should easily be able to avoid. Even if the case was brought against a regular person, I doubt there would be jail time. Musk and Rowling can naturally afford the best lawyers, and Rowling has gone radio silent from what I heard. So, fine is easily possible, but jail time is highly unlikely.

She's deleted like 30 posts and hasn't made any in a couple weeks

Imane might have won gold, but her greatest victory is getting JKR to shut tf up.

If you don't use twitter, she doesn't even has a voice.

Jk mold? Maybe but unlucky

Hoping, but in no way expecting.

No, especially not coming from Daily Mail.
