"Another government employee Ms. Webb?"

How childish you are. You're the dumb ass that focuses much more on the parole board than on the criminal. You must have a bad history with law enforcement. Let me guess: The cops treated you bad on a DUI arrest? Maybe they took your weed?

Whatever your guess is wrong. But considering how bad you are with facts I should not be surprised that you are even worse with guessing games.

“Nothing good could ever come from it.”

Nonsense. We could light them on fire.

Seems like a sick little game played by the state....Are these people on the broad angry because she is not speaking to them? So what?

She's said the same thing in all the other hearings...There is nothing different to be said...

Why not just eliminate the parole hearings for this person?

She sure in hell won't be granted parole....Is this just for these government employees on the hearing board to gain fame and notoriety and possible write books? Are they anger because the murderer opted not to speak with them?

You're the dumb ass that focuses much more on the parole board than on the criminal.

Seems I hit a nerve with you...

For the record:

Doyle said. Both he and Bentley said they were disappointed that Van Houten chose not to speak to them directly.

As if that would make a difference...Could it be these government employees are looking for some kind of twisted fame, and are disappointed the murderer chose not to speak to them directly and repeat the same crap she's repeating for the past 41 years?

First of all I would assume, though I admit to not being certain that a prisoner has a right to parole hearings after a certain time.

Secondly you said, “Seems I hit a nerve with you.” Well of course you did: You assumed wrongly that I was government employee. I'm not. Then you childishly called me “Ms. Webb”.

I've had a penis for 49 years jerk and unlike you I don't need Viagra and porn to make it work.

Weren’t all of these pigs sentenced to death before the California law took that horrible dip outside of the sanity of allowing the death penalty?

THAT, alone, should preclude any chance for parole.

I say let her out... as long as it is in a coffin (oh, and she’s dead in it, too, for you literalists.).

Yes, they were all sentenced to death.

LWOP is not unreasonable for their crimes.

They should all die in prison.

Their death sentences were commuted by the Rose Bird court. After which the voters of California booted Rose Bird and two of her henchmen off of the CA Supreme Court.

Absolutely! Every last one of them should leave prison in a body bag.

Uh, there was a question mark behind that Artemis.

Then you childishly called me “Ms. Webb”.

For that, I offer my sincere apology.

I've had a penis for 49 years jerk and unlike you I don't need Viagra and porn to make it work.

Hmmm...That's very commendable Artemis, but a bit more information than I needed.

:o

Van Houten was not yet suitable for parole because she had failed to gain complete insight into her crime and its motivation.

Oh darn....If she only had more insight into her crime!

I love this kind of parole babble.

I think if you get rejected for parole you should wait longer before your next parole hearing. Maybe wait an extra 3 years before your next hearing. Maybe we could do this to save California some money.

OK, I have an off-the-wall question, only obliquely related to this case.

Suppose you have a person who goes into prison in their early 20’s and gets parole in their early to mid-60’s. Considering that such a person would most likely have had a very sketchy job history before prison, wouldn’t this individual be ineligible for Medicare and Social Security?
As I read the material from SSA, you have to have a certain number of quarters to be eligible. I seem to remember that it’s 40 quarters which is 10 years.

Just wondering....
