Gulf
War Syndrome Made Him A Rapist The
US is a leader not only in incarceration, but also in capital
punishment. There are more than 3,600 condemned inmates on death rows
across the US. On March 19, on the eve of the Bush administration's
attack on Iraq, federal death row inmate Louis Jones, 53, was put to
death. Jones was a veteran of the 1991 Gulf War, and his
lawyers argued that he suffered from Gulf War Syndrome, which made him
violent and drove him to rape and murder a young servicewoman.
President Bush rejected his appeal for clemency. |
