Lawyer: Kevorkian May Not Survive Another Year in Prison |
Jack Kevorkian is one of the most prolific serial-killers in the annals of
history. Even to consider him for early release is a mockery to our justice
system. Let him rot in prison.
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,196323,00.html
SOUTHFIELD, Mich. - An attorney for Jack Kevorkian said the
assisted-suicide advocate will probably not survive another year if kept in
prison, as he again asked the state to grant his client a pardon or commute
his sentence.
Lawyer Mayer Morganroth said he applied to the state Parole Board and Gov.
Jennifer Granholm on Friday seeking a pardon, parole or commutation, citing
the 77-year-old's deteriorating health.
"Kevorkian has become increasingly frail and has fallen twice, injuring his
wrist and fracturing two ribs," Morganroth said in a statement.
The former doctor is serving a 10- to 25-year sentence for second-degree
murder for giving a fatal injection of drugs in 1998. He is eligible for
parole in 2007.
In 2003, 2004 and 2005, Granholm followed the parole board's advice in
denying applications for a commuted sentence or a pardon.
Kevorkian has said he assisted in at least 130 deaths, but has promised that
he will not assist another if released

Except for the wee detail that he didn't actually kill anybody at all.
Not that you would let the truth ever get in the way of your lust for
killing and suffering.

I understand why you don't approve of what he did, but calling Dr.
Kevorkian a serial killer is intellectually dishonest.
A serial killer is defined as someone who has killed at least 3 victims
(usually strangers) over time. They murder because they derive some sort
of satisfaction out of it (e.g., sexual). They don't do it for any other
reason than that. They feel compelled to kill; they do it for the thrill
of it.
Kevorkian, unlike a serial killer, didn't seek his victims out; they
came to him. Nor did he kill them himself: he set up the apparatus and
the "patient" did the deed. Finally, Kevorkian, unlike the serial
killer, did not derive any sort of pleasure out of the deaths. He
believed that he was providing a humane service to terminally ill people.

You're obviously new here otherwise, you'd know that J Young is
fundamentally dishonest...

Except for the last one. He video taped himself activating the
apparatus and sent a copy to the Prosecutor's office daring them to
prosecute him.

Yes, he did.

None of that matters to a Bible-banging moron like Young.

I agree with you totally. He is a grave danger to society and must
never been released. Even if he didn't kill any more people himself, he
would certainly train other killers in his macabre methods.
It is of the utmost urgency that he and any other mass murderers be
kept in prison until they die of natural causes.

Why is it considered humane to end the life of a terminally ill/injured
animal, without establishing if they would rather live, and an
abomination to end the life of a human who wants to be put out of their
misery?
You'd better hope you never aquire a terminal condition that will leave
you in agony for months before your painful, drawn out end traumatises
your loved ones while both they and yourself beseech the doctors to end
your suffering. Would you rather that every time your loved ones
remembered your passing they would also have to recall your laboured
last breaths and incoherent pain-induced ramblings or would you rather
they remember you as serenely falling asleep for the last time? Being
able to choose when you die lets you say goodbye while you are still
able and with dignity.

He's a Christian.
"... they continue to not give anyone any pain killers, again because
pain is good for the soul, as Mother Teresa told the reporters,
including a story she told of a man suffering terribly from cancer, she
told him, "Jesus is kissing you," to which the man replied, "then I
wish he'd stop." She chuckled after repeating the suffering man's
genuine heartfelt response."

Well said! Life is a right. It should not be an obligation. Sadists
like Young and smoking gun who believe people should be
forced to endure the sort of agony that Kervorkian provided
relief for. They should not be called pro-life advocates. They
should be called pro-torture advocates because that is what
Kervorkian was providing relief from and they want him to rot
in jail as a punishment.

you continue to demonstrate your ignorance of usenet newsgroups,
scumball, and your disrespect for readers' ability to decide for
themselves what is and is not appropriate.
do you feel like a hypocrite criticizing others for doing what you
do? even osprey has legitimately commented on your hypocrisy.
your hypocrisy aside, what you might want to do to make yourself feel
like an even bigger ***** is take a random sample of posts you've
whined about and then search google for the number of posts with this
topic, demonstrating that readers know what is of interest to them
far better than you do.
