Quadriplegic Rapist to be Released from Prison
A California appeals court has granted the release of a quadriplegic rapist who was considered an excessive cost to the state.
Steven Martinez was convicted of several counts of violent rape in 1998 after he drove his car over a woman, assaulted her, kidnapped her and then raped her.
While serving his sentence in 2001, Martinez was attacked by two other inmates and was stabbed in the neck. The wound paralyzed him instantly. As an inmate, his caretakers say he remains an “angry, repulsive person.”
Martinez applied last year to become the first inmate freed under a medical parole law that aims to reduce prison costs. He was turned down as a public safety risk. An appeals court in San Diego rejected that decision last month and ordered his release, according to the Associated Press.

Is he going to be released out the cargo door of a C-130 from 10,000 feet or is he going to be released from a container ship several miles off-shore?

He was paralyzed in jail. I think they should give his attackers some credit for their community service.

I’m sure it’s no coincidence that the fucker got beaten to paralyzed submission…
As far as letting him out goes, go ahead…Let the family of that woman be now free to pay him a visit now that he’s not so in jail anymore.

Like my boss says when I’m forced to take paid time off. It doen’t cost less, it just comes from a different account.
Californicans are going to pay even more to support that f_ck, it just won’t be coming out the prison account.

Gotta admit, I like the first two ideas here. Reality says though that he’ll probably get a government job. Still coming out the state treasury.

“Martinez was convicted of several counts of violent rape in 1998 after he drove his car over a woman, assaulted her, kidnapped her and then raped her.”
With what he did, I can only think of one chair he deserves, and it has a lot more voltage than a wheelchair……

I say we use this example to start a pilot program for all violent offenders. Knife to the spinal cord until you’re either dead or paralyzed, then parole.
Rehabilitation without recidivism: the liberal dream.

I believe the time for an administrative euthanization process has arrived.
He needs to be “put down”.

Sure – let him go.
Set him on the curb just outside the penitentiary on a hot summer day and don’t tell anybody about it.

Half-mile course , 4 percent downhill grade .. Spot him a 100 yard lead to the finish line , with louuisville sluggers given to the victim’s survivors .. He wins , he goes free ; he comes in second , he’s San Diego’s ‘pinata-of-the-week.’ .. frank k.
