Thread Name: BS: Susan Atkins - Release her from prison?
Subject: RE: BS: Susan Atkins - Release her from prison?
I've read a lot about the Manson Family and more recently I've read a lot about Susan Atkins. Originally she did receive the death penalty so she has already lived longer than she may have done.

I would not begrudge her the last few months of her life out of prison but then she didn't kill any of my family; I may feel differently if she had.

She has such a short time left to live now and she has already had one leg amputated. I just wonder who would look after her if she is released and who would foot the medical bills.

I would be surprised if the parole board agrees to this release and even if they do how long would all the paper work take?

Has she shown any remorse for her crimes which were particularly horrific?
