Atkins held in prison since 1969 for her part in the murder of Sharon Tate and others. Was held in Casntral Californias Women's facility at Chjowilla. Will the famiulies of her victims find peace at last i sincerly hope so. _________________________ Would I do it again? of course i would darling. Freddie Mercury

Sorry, I am being facetious, I do not belong to the school of thought that compassion should be shown to terminally ill people who have murdered others. I sincerely hope the families and friends of her victims can have closure. _________________________ Many a child has been spoiled because you can't spank a Grandma!

I recall when the last attempt was made emailing the Terminator oops Governer Arnie to object to her release. I for one believe the two who murdered Jamie Bulger should still be behind bars, and not walking free. _________________________ Would I do it again? of course i would darling. Freddie Mercury

When they had read the details of the murders and realised what evil she had committed(for instance refusing to save Sharon Tate's eight and half month old unborn baby) they all said she should not be released. _________________________ Wandering aimlessly through FT since 1999.

Funny how all the other people who have been released on humanitarian grounds recently have risen like Lazarus. Ernest Saunders was even cured of his dementia. Slight digression for anyone who was wondering about Ronnie Biggs, who was at death's door when he was "allowed home to die." http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/UK-News..._Shops_With_Son Not looking too bad, considering - is he? _________________________ I appreciate people who are civil, whether they mean it or not.
