Which brings us to another comment from a victim, added to the latest version of the same AP story this morning:
"He's the luckiest man in the world," said Paul Heath, who was on the fifth floor of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building when the bomb exploded outside. "Fortier, by being willing to do a plea bargain, won the Powerball lottery of the justice system."
Are the feds going to say they are protecting Fortier from the victims and their families, and that is why he needs to be in witness protection? As my husband said, we don't protect criminals from victims, only from those they've testified against: cohorts.
