Police believe one person is responsible for stabbing three middle-aged homeless men. He is (considered) extremely dangerous to the public.” Another serial [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[TThey are charged with breaking laws or victimizing fellow citizens. We respond by making sure they get a lawyer &#8211; often on the taxpayer’s dime. If they plead “not guilty” we stage expensive trials for them so they can provide evidence to a judge or jury.  If convicted, they are imprisoned. So, after all that [...]]]></description>

And, in the end, if Jared is declared fit to stand trial, Arizona’s death penalty might be used to take away their only son.  We need to remember the families of those who commit heinous murders. They are, indeed, victims too."]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Both my parents passed away exactly how they lived - on their own terms. They wanted no heroic measures to prolong their lives and they adamantly told me - their only child - that they did not want to die in a cold, impersonal hospital room. They made me promise to abide by their wishes. And just in case, they signed a living will putting it all in writing.
I thank Dr. Jack Kevorkian for that. He started the national dialogue about death that opened up the topic for discussion in my household.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA["Now, if you’re thinking professional jurors wouldn’t constitute a “jury of your peers” realize that nowhere in our U.S. Constitution are we promised that.  We are not guaranteed a panel that looks just like us: Barby the teacher, Joe the plumber or Diane the journalist. The U.S. Constitution simply assures American citizens a “right of trial by jury.”  
So who’s to say that jury can’t be a group of people who’s occupation is that of professional juror?"]]></description>
