This was tried in court. The response from the judge was “If the man is dead, then he cannot petition the court. If the man is not dead, then his life sentence has not been served.” An excellent exchange of sophistry!
He’s either dead or alive like, it’s not hard
If you crashed your car and fixed it, you still crashed your car.
Then the car is not dead now
Death is nothing like that
Can’t his attourney petition on his behalf?
Prison Wardens Hate This One Trick
There would be a market for adenosine in prisons if this held up. Usually stops the heart for ~10 seconds when slammed in the IV. We use it to convert supraventricular tachycardia back to a normal sinus rhythm. But there is a few seconds if terror most the time.
I believe you, random intermet person, actually work in medicine entirely because you didn’t spell it “superventricular”.
Thanks for saving lives.
Woulda just said SVT and NSR, I had to remember how to spell it out.
I read this, don’t know if it’s true, that in the UK the sentence used to be “hang by the neck” but then they cut the rope before a guy died. He argued that the sentence was to hang by the neck, and the sentence was fulfilled. The judge agreed and from then on it was “hang by the neck till dead”. Might be totally made up but I want it to be true
Literally New Game+
- Start fresh with no ongoing quests for income
- Getting quests is harder due to higher speech check requirements
- Certain quests will now be permanently locked-out
- Some NPCs are now default passive-hostile due to certain achievements you now have in your catalogue
- Start at a higher level but stats on paper are lower levelled so you will have to compete for lower level bounties
Wrong post?
Its in reference to him coming back to life and leaving prison with the new life situation he is in
Why is someone going septic from renal stones still in his cell and not in a hospital? He should sue for not receiving medical care.
Yes, but USA and medical care is almost an oximoron
Sounds like a prison hospital is all you get if you murder people. Seems fair to me tbh, not a big fan of murderers.
Withholding medical care or administrating poor or neglectful medical care certainly sounds cruel and unusual to me.
Don’t engage with them, look at the username. I wish more trolls were this upfront about it.
I mean, at least they’re honest lol
And what does murder sound like to you
Can you confirm beyond a shadow of a doubt that absolutely everyone in that prison is actually a murderer?
No, but that’s how Japan does it and look at the crime rate over there.
If you kill all your prisoners there’s no hope for reform
And there was that one guy who claimed that scientifically every cell in our body regenerates every 7 years, so after 7 years you are no longer the same person who committed the crime. So prisoners should not have to stay in prison more than 7 years.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t brain cell never renew itself?
Gonna correct, this is false-ish… however it is much slower. By the time you’re 50 for example all of the neurons in your hippocampus will have been replaced. It’s called neurogenesis. It is not currently known whether its the same rate for all of the brain some parts are a little faster, other parts are slower.
So the question is, if you die and are resuscitated, are you living the same life or a new one?
Depends if you have memory continuity I suppose.
Did your brain die? Did you get reincarnated? If not, you’re the same you.
That’s up to you I suppose
If it’s good enough for Star Trek it’s good enough for me.
If God is anywhere in the legislation that put them away it could be argued God intervened

Not sure if it is the same article but a search gave multiple hits with articles using the same picture, so I guess at least those are the same? Man is still I prison.
Except if he had several life sentences
He’s still living in the same body, so no dice.
“If I paid for death, I’m gonna use all of it”
what
I hate this terminology. You’re not dead just because your heart stopped beating. Like, you ain’t dead until your brain is. When you recover, you were just resuscitated, not resurrected.
