However, in the cases of the two above mentioned individuals:  Charles Manson
has never killed anyone himself (personally that is) and Sirhan Sirhan killed
an 'ordinary citizen' when he shot Robert Kennedy . . . Kennedy was legally
a regular kind of guy where and at the time he was killed . . . Therefore, 
I would think eventually Sirhan Sirhan will find himself paroled . . . How
long he stays alive outside the protection of prison is another matter.

It seems to me, that when someone commits a crime serious enough to warrant
a jail sentence . . . things like conjugal visits, etc. are appalling!  For
heavens sake, we treat our prisoners better than we do military personnel.

When prisoners complain about lack of space . . . they should be reminded of
what the accommodations on a naval ship look like . . .
