There's lots of good reasons to waive appeals. ONe of them was his wife got special consideration as part of the deal. She'll actually see daylight again.
You know, the hilarious thing about this case is this is the kind of government overreach you nutters would be against if it didn't involve lady-parts.
The women who had already plead guilty to what amounts to minor felonies is getting special treatment because Gosnell waived the right of appeal? Can you prove that, or am I just supposed to assume you are wrong?
Minor Felonies? Seriously? I never heard of a "Minor" Felony before.
Isn't that like being "A Little Bit Pregnant".
Here's the the thing. the women who copped pleas were probably as guilty as Gosnell. Often they were the ones performing the abortions. In once case, a woman who copped a plea was acting on instructions from Gosnell over the phone.
Not to mention that not one woman who had an abortion at Gosnell's clinic was charged. Hmmmm. Imagine that.
So let's review- Massive overreach followed by a quick plea deal to protect the conviction from appeal, after making a devil's bargain with all the co-conspirators.
Hmmmm. The lengths Anti-Choice nutters go to.
