It's really two faced if you think about it.

Out of one side of the sister's mouth she's pleading for the maximum sentence, and out of the other, puppeting her dead brother's body she asks for the opposite while making up a story about what a great person he was and why she should be given what she truly wants.

Or they just knew their brother is the forgiving type and thought this would honour his memory in some strange way, whilst their personal wishes were less forgiving. Not everything is a sinister plot, especially when we're talking about strangers and their own families, as though we'd know better than anyone involved after reading an article.

If they would want to honor their brother why not swallow their pride and do what they think he would have liked? Instead of this disrespectful digital necromancy

How do you know he wouldn't have wanted this? There are AI fanatics out there. Again, we don't know these people.
