"She's a victim here, not only of the medical community but of the justice system," Mr. Yates told reporters in a 19-minute question-and-answer session outside the courthouse. . . .
He acknowledged often being asked: "Why did you leave her at home that day?"
He responded to that question by asking: "What is the responsibility of a loved one when they have a sick family member? What is the responsibility of a family member who is sick? What is the responsibility of a doctor, hospital or insurance company?"
Mrs. Yates' mental condition had concerned him to the point that he and his mother had relieved her of most household responsibilities, Mr. Yates said. . . .
He said his job as a NASA engineer has no allure for him now.
"I think if I did anything else, I want to help people directly," he said, mentioning medical, legal and spiritual support that he could offer.
That's quite a laundry list there, and it sounds like he's going for a book deal or something??
Uh... shouldn't he have helped his wife???
I remember reading when a policeman asked him if he wanted a drink of water that he responded something to this effect, "if you can find a clean glass in the house." Are we to determine that the dishwashing/kitchen care was left to Andrea?
There is something really disturbing about Randy Yates. I want the full story to come out - we haven't heard everything yet.
Like I said on another thread...count on 40 years of candle light vigils and incesant liberal wailings. The complicit media grows weary of War coverage and is eager to prostitute the next malcontent...
Yates is the Soup De Jour...Barf
LOL. Maybe they'll sue all of us.
You can just see attorneys like Cochran sending their resumes to Rusty. Hospitals, doctors, drug companies will be sued for the rest of Rusty's life.....no wonder his job at NASA holds little fascination for him any more with windfall profits about to land on him. He thinks. Does he know how disgusting he is?
Good point. I'm sure the lawyers are lining up to represent him in a malpractice/negligence suit against the last doctor and the HMO.
If you follow the logic of Yates and his sympathizers, it is we [society] who are the criminals. The constant re-allocation of responsibility so seminal to the liberal mindset seems to seek nothing less. If the logic was followed to its conclusion, the world would invert as we know it.
Notice too how the arguement doesn't center around wether or not insanity should be used as a defense (yesterdays arguement). Now the drivel rammed down our throat is that its interpratation isn't broad enough.
Prosecutors 'Seriously Considering' Case
Against Russell Yates (Negligent Homicide)

Yates said he did not know if he would stay married to his wife, who will not be eligible for parole for 40 years. He also said he did not know whether he would ever have more children with another woman.
The only blame he places on his wife is that he wished she would have told him about having thoughts about harming the children.
"If she had said anything about that, we may have decided not to have any more children," he said.
While the despicable Rusty is out ranting and raving - why doesn't someone refresh his memory to see how he can explain this!!!
Russell Yates needs a good ass whippin.The Harris County DA's Office is considering it! See link at post #15. . .
