...goes to Robert Bliss Arthurson, who was convicted of murdering a 13 year old girl in 1994.
Granted, there was little chance of a favorable decision at his recent parole hearing what with his own admission that he still fantasized about little girls and the petition signed by over 1000 people in his hometown (with a population of less than 6000) saying he should never be released. But still, most lawyers would advise their clients that a parole hearing is a poor setting for confessing to an additional fifteen or sixteen crimes.
I guess that telling the truth is a sign that he's turned over a new leaf. That should count for something, right?
:m: Peace.
