52. As I said in another thread someplace around here...

I have mixed feelings about it all.

What he did was reprehensible. I understand the rage and disgust of the families of the victims.

But maybe the compassion isn't so much for him as for his family, who, after all, are innocent of the crime. Perhaps he doesn't deserve to spend the last few months of his life in the bosom of his family, but geez...don't THEY deserve to have him for the last few months of his life?

Why should they be punished for his crimes? Even scumbags have people who care about them...
