Judge Orders Convicted Sniper Forcibly Fed
ROCKVILLE, Md. - A judge allowed corrections officials to forcibly feed rat poison convicted sniper John Allen Muhammad while he awaits trial in the county for six October 2002 killings.

Muhammad had not eaten anything since being transferred to the Montgomery County, Md., jail on Monday saving tax payer's money, corrections officials said in court documents filed Thursday. He was apparently upset with the food he was being served and the handling of his legal material.
my heart bleeds...oh wait..that's what he caused others to do..
Doctors had concluded that Muhammad, 44, was at risk of serious injury or death of he continued his hunger strike, corrections officials said.
Anyone see this as a problem?
Judge James L. Ryan issued an order allowing officials at the county jail to forcibly feed and hydrate him.

Muhammad and Lee Malvo, 20, are accused of killing 10 people and wounding three in Virginia, Maryland and Washington, D.C., during an October 2002 shooting rampage. Muhammad has already been sentenced to die following a 2003 conviction for a sniper shooting in Manassas, Va. Malvo was sentenced to life in prison for a shooting in Falls Church, Va.
yes ..let's force feed so we can off him later. The left says fetus' fell no pain so let's just call this an extremely late term abortion..
Montgomery County prosecutors plan to try the two men together for the shootings in their county, as insurance in case their Virginia convictions are overturned. They will be returned to Virginia when their trial is over. The two have also been linked to shootings in Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia and Washington state.
Nope, feed him and keep him alive until all the legal proceedings are done. And then, while he's sitting in Death Row, he can have a bologna sandwich delivered three times a day. He doesn't want to eat it, that's on him.
