Originally she had been given the death penalty, but that was commuted to life in prison after the California Supreme Court's People v. Anderson decision. I can’t believe she had the nerve to ask to be released. She showed no remorse for her butchered victims. What goes around comes around.

I don't know if this is true, but I heard on the radio that the state(taxpayers) spent over 3 milllion on her cancer treatments. I'm sorry but I find that insane.

I hadn’t heard that but it sounds pretty accurate. I’m surprised she lived as long as she did in prison without another inmate taking care of her business.

I am all for providing basic medical care for our inmates, I believe it is the only just thing to do, but where do we draw the line, or is it just an open ATM for them to draw from forever? Also I heard it on the radio but I have not been able to verify it yet. I want to be able to be truly angry over that use of money so I want to make sure it is a legit number.

Inmates also have equal access to organ transplants. That is wrong in my book!

I don't believe in forced donations, lol but I am also angry that they can have access to organ donations, too.
