He murdered in defense of others, or at least that is his defense.

Tim McVeigh had a “necessity defense”, too.

I am interested in reading the defense and prosecution arguments. I’m not sure this is a good idea, as I said, but am very interested in how it turns out. May whatever the result is help save babies’ lives. If it does, it was a good idea. If it doesn’t, it wasn’t.

Good point. If Terry Nichols had taken out McVeigh before he blew up the Murrah Building, should he have been prosecuted for 1st degree murder?

Another of your falsehoods. - McVey had no defense, and he was a puppet anyway.
