There is something about the Latimer case that has always bothered me.....

If Latimer felt he was doing the right thing, why did he stick his daughter in a truck with a hose attached to the exhaust - the other end directed towards the inside of the truck, wait for her to die, then carry her to her bed, tuck her in as though she died of natural causes and why did he lie after she was found dead?

If he felt that she was living in extreme pain and that he was doing the right thing, he should have been a man about it. He should have taken responsiblity.

He was refused parole because he has yet to acknowledge what he did to his daughter.

If we were to give him parole before his time is served, the message sent to those who have to care for the disabled, is one of acceptance.

Tracy couldn't speak for herself. The person she trusted the most, killed her. I struggle with this one.
