A man who said he killed prominent Kansas abortion provider Dr. George Tiller in
order to save the lives of unborn children was convicted Friday of
murder.
The jury deliberated for just 37 minutes
before finding Scott Roeder, 51, of Kansas City, Mo., guilty of premeditated,
first-degree murder in the May 31 shooting death.
He faces a mandatory sentence of life in
prison with the possibility of parole after 25 years when he is sentenced March
9. Prosecutor Nola Foulston said she would pursue a so-called "Hard 50"
sentence, which would require Roeder to serve at least 50 years before he can be
considered for parole.
(I hope this has brought some peace along with a feeling of justice to Tiller's family and will help them to see all human life is a gift from God and should be valued. As I posted before this killer might say he did this to save unborn babies but this act was an anti life act. It has hurt the pro life movement. Read more of the above story Jury Finds Man
Guilty of Murder in Kansas Abortion Provider's Death.)
