The state will fail to accomplish anything meaningful in prosecution - a bad deal or bungled case. Plus there's the notoriety the case is already generating. She'll need to file a civil suit as well, and she'll need someone making sure everything is OK on her end (the attacker doesn't counter-sue for instance).

I've been the victim of hate crime, you think you're gonna get a justice boner and fight it to the core, but in reality the simplest/safest answer for the victim is to shut up and make it disappear. You're already traumatized, fighting is confusing and painful.
