My first job after graduating High School was working at the Nova Scotia Hospital as an orderly. This was a Phycriatic hospital, and was easy to get work at this instituation in our community.

While working on the addmission ward I encountered several students (one in Particular) who was a Med student At Dalhousie School Of Medicine in Halifax, NS,(attemted to commit suicide) after talking with him he admitted to me that he was attemting to meet his parents expectations (of becomeing a doctor) and frlt he could not meet this expectation and decided to end his life, a very young man who didn`t  feel he could meet the expectations of his parents.

This might not have anything to do with this particular situation, however I really believe that the curcumstances regarding this case is similar in fact. Given the age factof, Med student, Suicide tendancies. This individual has found a way out of his situation, still will be famous, won`t have to satisfy anyone but himself, and will be locked away so no one can get to him , ( which will free him from the realistic pressure of trying to please someone else)

I really feel that if we were to investigate his past, that ther had been  emotional, as well as physical abuse at sometime in his life.

I also believe that if a life i taken by someone that the penalty should fit the crime.

  Well, I just have to point this out. On the topic "The Dark Side of the Internet" I was slammed for saying that prostitution was dangerous. Another poster compared it to skydiving, para-sailing, skiing, swimming, Nascar, flying in planes, and the Space Shuttle. I was accused of having morals. Well, I certainly don't mind being accused of having morals, I'm rather proud of them. But the fact that a woman was murdered by posting her services on Craigslist was exactly what I had said could happen. It's a very dangerous occupation for any young woman to participate in.

  Believe me, I would rather have been wrong than for some young woman to have lost her life. But maybe this will help others who do this to get out, help to give them the strength they need to quit. Or maybe it will help to keep at least one girl from starting. I don't know, I can only hope. As to banning the above mentioned sports and activities no, I don't believe in that. There is an obvious difference in being murdered rather than being killed while playing a sport or cleaning windows on a skyscraper. If others can't see it then I pity them.
