On October 20, 1987, indignant Maryland judge Vincent Femina tried and sentenced the convicted Massachusetts murderer Willie Horton to two consecutive life terms plus 85 years for crimes committed in Maryland, including assault, armed robbery, and rape.
Horton pleaded with Judge Femina to send him back to Massachusetts where he could serve out the remainder of his life sentence for the brutal murder of a teenage boy.
At the time, technocratic Massachusetts Governor Dukakis was releasing violent criminals for weekend furloughs “as an experiment” in case the overcrowded prisons might someday release hundreds of criminals back into society. On one particular Friday, Horton was furloughed, fled to Maryland, and tortured a young Maryland couple, telling them, “I like this life. I choose this life.”
Judge Femia refused to return Horton to Massachusetts, stating, "I'm not prepared to take the chance that Mr. Horton might again be furloughed or otherwise released. This man should never draw a breath of free air again."
Horton continues to rot away in a Maryland maximum security prison.
The FDA has rejected its strongest safety warning for Covid mRNA vaccines despite acknowledging that children were killed by the products.
This news surfaced during a televised Bloomberg interview with FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, who said the agency has “no plans” to apply its strongest safety warning to Covid mRNA vaccines.
In that interview, Makary confirmed that the FDA’s own safety and epidemiology centre had formally recommended a boxed warning — a step reserved, under FDA rules, for drugs with “special problems, particularly ones that may lead to death or serious injury.”
