Release denied for dying Manson follower

SACRAMENTO – The state parole board on Tuesday denied a request for compassionate release to Charles Manson follower Susan Atkins, who stabbed actress Sharon Tate to death nearly 40 years ago and is dying of brain cancer.

The California Board of Parole released its unanimous decision hours after a 90-minute hearing, during which it heard impassioned pleas from both sides.

“Obviously, it was too hot of a potato for them to handle,” said one of Atkins' attorney, Eric P. Lampel. “Of course we're disappointed. There's no basis for denying this.”

Lampel filed a motion July 10 with Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge David Wesley asking for his client's release no matter what the parole board recommends. No hearing has been set, Lampel said after the hearing.

“We're going to be able to make the case in court. We'll take it to the next step,” he said after being informed of the board's decision by The Associated Press.

Atkins' doctors and officials at the women's prison in Corona made the request in March because of her deteriorating health. She also has had her left leg amputated and is paralyzed on her right side, her husband, James Whitehouse, told the California Board of Parole Hearings.

Whitehouse, also acting as one of Atkins' attorneys, had argued that his wife was so debilitated that she could not even sit up in bed. He told the parole board there was no longer a reason to keep her incarcerated.

“She literally can't snap her fingers,” he said. “She can put sentences together three or four times a day, but that's the extent of it.”

He said doctors have given her three months to live. Atkins, in a hospital near the Southern California prison where she was housed for nearly 40 years, did not attend Tuesday's hearing.

Well let me cry her a river.....ok Im done.

Let her stay just where she is and die where she belongs.

No matter what the politics that bitch is among the living dead and that is exactly where she needs to be. She didn't give that baby she butchered a chance. This is one that the State needs to pay for until the devil has claimed her.

Karma is a bitch.

Karma is a bitch.

[Vendetta]

i think they should hold the body of a dead inmate until the sentence is served........of course im a southern republican!!!!!

She should have dropped dead before she killed someone else if she wanted sympathy.

“Obviously, it was too hot of a potato for them to handle,” said one of Atkins' attorney, Eric P. Lampel. “Of course we're disappointed. There's no basis for denying this.”

Yes, there is. She murdered someone.

I quote the great Major Payne: "You want sympathy, look in the dictionary between shit and syphillis."

It's "Life in Prison" not "Until you get sick in prison."

What were her words to Sharon Tate as she begged for the life of her child , I believe it was words to the effect of " Bitch I don't give a f.... about you or your baby!" Well , Bitch I don't care about you or your cancerous brain. You were without compassion when you killed helpless victims one of them an unborn baby. That makes you less than an animal to me. I would have compassion for an animal. You escaped the death penalty which was more mercy than you ever showed anyone in your wretched life and was more mercy than society should have shown you. Your were instead sentenced to life in prison. But now that is too harsh. Serve out the rest of your sentence you miserable piece of trash and stop whinning. You were sentenced to life and your still alive. If it was up to me I would have solved all of your problems about three decades ago with a bullet to the forehead. The Good Lord may forgive you but I'm an imperfect human being and I consider you an evil monster.

Thanks for that link PapaBear! Far too often, time fades the reality of what oxygen thieves like Susan Atkins have done to society. The pain she may be suffering due to her cancer is nothing compared to the grief of the victims families and the lives not fulfilled by those victims.

What's she doing in a hospital?

Send her back to die in her cell and assign her a Medicare home health nurse that visits once a week, like decent folks get.

I hope she's in pain and suffering miserably.
