Olympic bomber Eric Rudolph laments in a series of letters to a newspaper that the maximum-security federal prison where he is spending the rest of his life is designed to drive him insane.All together now..."Awwwwwww"
Where's my femtoviolin?
Rudolph wrote that he spends 23 hours a day in his 7-by-12-foot cell, his only exercise confined to an enclosed area he described as a "large empty swimming pool" divided into "dog-kennel style cages."
Yup, that's Supermax. Make the U.S. government your enemy, and the U.S. government might just take you up on your offer.
The newspaper reported today that it has corresponded by mail with Rudolph for more than a year, and prison officials have refused the paper's request to interview Rudolph. The Gazette refused Rudolph's request that it publish his writings in their entirety. The newspaper said if it published any articles, it would print portions of the letters as long as they were not hate literature or libelous.
What is this where newspapers fall all over themselves to publish the works of murderers?
Rudolph, an anti-government extremist, pleaded guilty in April 2005 to setting the bomb that killed one person and wounded more than 100 at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, and three other bombings, including a fatal explosion at a Birmingham clinic.
It's good that that fat security guard who lived with his mother got what he deserved...wait, was that fake news?
