I realize she's not a great person, but I don't see how releasing her does any good. She probably won't be able to afford the medical coverage outside of prison and might not be able to get treatment, so you might as well leave her there. It seems to me that it might be more humane that way.

It would be interesting to know why she was denied parole the last 17 times it came up. I don't think the financial cost of her medical care should be an issue in the decision.

If she's met whatever criteria Cali uses to grant parole - well parole her.

I guess what I'm saying is, she should receive the same treatment as anyone else who committed like crimes - regardless of health, gender, notoriety, etc.

It's time like this that assisted, and even encouraged, suicide be available. Sounds like she just needs to just pass from this world.

There's a Parole Board that reviews cases, interviews the prisoner and family members of the victim (or in non-murder cases the victims themselves), etc.

Sharon Tate's sister has apparently made something of a crusade of keeping Manson family members in prison. I understand how something like that can consume a person, but I'm not sure it's entirely healthy.

Vincent Bugliosi, who prosecuted Atkins, Manson and others, has spoken out in favor of releasing her to die at home (she is married and her husband is campaigning for her release).

I'd go with this, if I felt like it would be within me to still treat someone who did what she did humanely.

I voted other. I think we should set up an arena in which disabled criminals fight for their freedom (and our amusement!) - a crippliseum, if you will. Now, I know some of you "liberals", Pensive in particular, are going to say that this is inhumane, so let me pre-empt your complaints. Yes, it's a little cruel to tempt people to beat each other to a bloody pulp. Yes, it's somewhat depraved to watch them do so on national television. But is this really worse than I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here, than Big Brother? I think not. No, I am not suggesting we lower the bar, I am merely suggesting we perpetuate the status quo. And isn;t that what everyone wants, deep, deep down? For tommorow to be pretty much like today?

Server ate mah post!

I say, reinstate her death penalty and put her and the taxpayers out of their misery.

Nah, keep her in there.

This is Karma working as intended.

We could cut the middle man and just dig the hole...
