Some Olympic Victims Won't Face Rudolph
300 Seats Set Aside for Sentencing of Eric Rudolph in Olympic Bombing, but Many Won't Appear

ATLANTA Aug 21, 2005 — Some 300 seats were set aside so victims of the deadly bombing at the 1996 Olympics and two other blasts could join others in court to see Eric Rudolph sentenced to life behind bars.

But only about half the victims were likely to show up Monday, partly because a previous sentencing in Alabama turned into a forum for Rudolph's anti-abortion, anti-gay views, and partly because they believe it's time to move on.

"I don't want to give this guy any more time. It's taken enough of my time and my life," said Jane Henry of Boca Raton, Fla., who was struck by shrapnel in her leg during the Olympic Park blast.

"I don't need to be there. I can hear about it," said Calvin Thorbourne of Austell, whose legs also were hit by shrapnel from that bomb. "It's always going to be part of my life, but I've always felt justice would be served."

2. The victims should face him

They should be allowed to spit on him, beat him to a bloody pulp, whatever. He messed up a lot of people and he should pay. Life without parole is correct. And no contact with the outside world. None. Life in solitary confinement. That's still probably too good for him, but we do what we can. And what about Jewell, the guy who was originally charged with the bombings? Maybe he should be allowed to kick Rudolph's rear too.
