KILLER OF TROOPER GEORGE HANNA FACES POSSIBILITY OF PAROLE

SJC Ruling Opens Door For Potential Release

On February 26, 1983, Trooper George Hanna was gunned down in cold blood in Auburn MA by several individuals, who were planning a robbery of a local business.  George Hanna got in their way, so they killed him.    

Since the day he was murdered, some 45 years ago, until today his family and his friends have painfully wondered, what life would have been like , if he had lived.  Today, in a clear manifestation of confused legal thinking, one of his killers, actually faces the possibility of being released on parole.  This prospect is the consequence of a Supreme Judicial Court ruling, which embraced a radical and questionable theory about brain development, advanced by many European countries.  It holds, that full brain development in human beings occurs much later than previously thought, thus casting doubts upon criminal culpability.      

This theory completely rejects moral development as a legitimate element in administering justice. None of Hanna’s killers advanced any mental deficiency in their defense. They were rationale people. The deed they committed was vicious and horrendous. It was not a mistake of the head but an evil disposition in the heart, that ended George Hanna’s life. Many of our justices appear to have forgotten that distinction.     

The people of Massachusetts claim to value life. In their charity, they chose to reject capital punishment as a response to pre-meditated murder.  George Hanna’s killers have received the dividend from their beneficence.   George Hana’s life had value as well, and because it was coldly and brutally taken from him, a loss that continues to torture his family to this very day, Justice demands, that those who took it, remain in prison for the rest of their lives. MAPLE has received unconfirmed information that there will be a demonstration at the Parole Board Office tomorrow at 8A.   This office is located on 12 Mercer Road in Natick MA.  A demonstration of support is expected.  If anyone has additional information on this please forward it.
