Perhaps it's less about Susan Atkins being ruled out of eligibility because I say so, and more about the others shouldn't have been granted a compasionate release in the first place. She just happens to be under the spotlight due to the high profile crime that she commited. I should pity her for that? I don't think so.
Besides...who is going to assume the cost of her medical treatment? Odds are good that it's the state. So, she might as well just stay where the hell she is and continue to receive her treatment there.
