Ex-Manson follower dying, seeks release from prison - CNN.com Pretty interesting story. I guess you can perceive it as an issue between morality and justice. Is it okay to allow

Ex-Manson follower dying, seeks release from prison - CNN.com

Pretty interesting story.

I guess you can perceive it as an issue between morality and justice.

Is it okay to allow a convicted murderer free or since her human rights have been taken away, is it right to keep her jailed depriving her of enjoying her last few months alive with her husband?

What if she doesn't die in six months? What if she lives 50 more years?

Only true celebrities are allowed to leave the prison after 39 yea... I mean 39 minutes of "imprisonment".

If you commit the crime, you do the time (LIFE)!!!!!! I dont see the need for any "ands", "ifs", or "buts."

Life is life, that is part of the punishment.

She is lucky she wasn't executed.

Her victims didn't have the opportunity to spend a few last months... let alone moments of peace before they were killed. No release.

i am an extreme bleeding heart and you know that... but this woman savagely murdered a pregnant woman who begged for her life and was told -- "Look bitch, I don't care a thing about you. You're going to die and there's nothing you can do about it."


i find it strange that Bugliosi apparently told the LA Times that he doesn't have any problem with her release.

I found it strange too. Actually, very strange, since he had seem to have a tough stance against Manson and the clan.

Just what the bajeebers does a "bleeding heart" believe in according to you BAD?

Arguments pro and con on the "Compassion" release:

Pro: Shows compassion

Probably saves the state some $ on the medical etc.

Not much of a flight risk w/ brain cancer and an amputated leg.

Con: Shows compassion

Murderous a-hole

Would like to see one of these prison converts to Christianity stay
IN prison for once.

Manson Family helped give the '60's a bad name.

Manson Family were a bunch of racists! Oops! Sorry, that's not fair is it?
