Convicted terrorist Eric Rudolph — the bomber behind attacks at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta and at a women's clinic in Birmingham, Ala. — whines that his Colorado prison is, well, too much like life in prison.
"It is a closed-off world designed to isolate inmates from social and environmental stimuli, with the ultimate purpose of causing mental illness and chronic physical conditions such as diabetes, heart disease and arthritis," Rudolph wrote in a letter to the Gazette newspaper in Colorado Springs, Colo.
Save your sympathy for one of his victims, Emily Lyons, a nurse at the Birmingham clinic left partially blind by Rudolph's bomb.
“I lost my left eye, it damaged my right eye, broke the right side of my face, first, second and third-degree burns on the front of my body, broke my left leg…tore the muscle and skin off the front of my legs, hole in my abdomen – my intestines were hanging out.”
Rudolph got off easy.
