#1 I feel very little sympathy. She was sentenced to life in prison. She served her sentence.
God may have mercy on her.

#2 "the baby boy, naming it Zezozoze Zadfrack. His whereabouts are unknown"

If that were my name, you wouldn't find me either.

Yikes!

"diagnosed with brain cancer [then] had a leg amputated"

I think I see the problem here....

(And no, I have no sympathy. Sharon Tate couldn't be reached for comment.)

#3 Sounds okey dokey to me, but then I am rather heartless...

I catch spiders and put them outside, I would pay to put up a sign in my neighborhood that says, "watch for squirrels at play" and I think sticks and stones hurt bones but names have the ability to hurt even more.

However, I'm feeling cold on this one. She's in God's hands now. Good luck to her.

#4 As they say in Mother Russia - "Tough s#!tsky".

#5 OK, you can let her out now. As long as she's room temperature.

#6 She belatedly started doing the right things, but still ended her days in prison for her inexcusable crimes - and I think most people, anywhere, would agree with that as appropriate treatment. Compare and contrast Britain's New Labour and Scottish National lowlife politicians' 'compassionate' release of the arrogant and unapologetic al Megrahi.

#7 It's very rare that someone sentenced to life dies in jail. Justice served.

#8 Atkins was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2008, had a leg amputated

clearly one of those tonsil stealing and leg ~~foot~~-amputatin' docs that Obama referred to!

#10 Further down in the article:
Atkins also was convicted with Manson of still another murder, of musician Gary Hinman, in July 1969.

Nope. No sympathy at all.

God forgive me...that made me laugh out loud.
