Jury Convicts Killer Of Abortion Provider

It took a Kansas jury on Friday just 37 minutes to find Scott Roeder
guilty of first-degree murder and aggravated assault in the shooting of
George Tiller, an abortion provider.
The prosecution said all along that this was a clear-cut murder case, and
the defendant even admitted the crime. The defense wanted the jury to
consider a voluntary manslaughter charge, which carries a much lighter
sentence than murder. But the judge ruled against that.
Roeder testified that he believed abortion was murder and said he needed
to stop it by killing Tiller, one of the few doctors who provided
abortions later in pregnancy. Roeder did not deny any of the facts
surrounding the May 31 shooting.
Kim Parker, one of the prosecutors, says she hoped the judge's decision to
not allow the jury to consider second-degree murder or voluntary
manslaughter resonated.
"Hopefully it sends a clear message that this type of conduct is clearly
not justified under the law," Parker said. "There is no place for this.
There are no medals to be given for those who violate the rules."
Mark Rudy, Roeder's defense attorney, was clearly dejected after the
verdict. He said Roeder made so many admissions that there was no hope
without the voluntary manslaughter defense.
"The jury was not presented with any options obviously. He was either
guilty of first-degree murder or let goand we were not allowed to argue
lesser," Rudy said. "Other things had been ruled out . So we were left
with not much to argue frankly."
