An Open Letter to Karla Homolka

People like you really ought to never get out of prison. At least your husband is serving a life term, even though you should be too. You should feel lucky to even be alive at this point, and yet you have the audacity to whine about how the press following your every move?

"The thought of being relentlessly pursued, hunted down and followed when I won't have any protection makes me fear for my life," she said in an affidavit.

Ya, well, your victims probably were not overly comfortable with being tortured, raped, and killed, either. I guess you reap what you sow, eh?

"People are always going to interpret what I do as bad. They'll pick out one bad thing from a sea of good and I'll be judged on that," she wrote in prison correspondence that was published in a newspaper.

Oh cry me a friggin' river... When your "one bad thing" involves torture, rape, and murder, and also includes drugging your own sister so your husband can rape her, then guess what? Ya, people are going to focus on that, and no, normal people are not going to feel sorry for you one bit.

Your lucky you are even alive, let alone free, so quit yer bitchin'!!

I absolutely agree.
Just FYI -- although I don't believe here husband will ever get out, in Canada all people who are serving the max. (25 - life) can apply for parole under 'the faint hope clause' at 15 years. The victims families are not necessarily notified that the application has been made.

In 2002 a decision had been rendered in 118 cases and 94 inmates were granted a reduction in the period of parole ineligibility. This would not guarantee they'd get out early, but it would give them a good shot.

Canada isn't like the US when it comes to imprisonment; we keep the keys handy.

Well, the US doesn't exactly have the greatest track record when it comes to not having revolving doors on our prisons, either. Though we have made improvements.
