美国为晚期孕妇做流产的医生不多，而司各特就杀死了其中一位。司各特在法庭上为自己辩护，说他杀人是根据上帝的旨意来挽救婴儿。

堪萨斯法庭星期四判司各特50年监禁，不得保释。这是该州对一级谋杀案最长的判决。52岁的司各特去年五月份谋杀了流产医生乔治-梯勒。

“我杀他是为了阻止他残害更多无辜的孩子，” 司各特说。“堪萨斯没有了乔治-梯勒，婴儿们就安全多了。”

因为司各特在逃跑时恐吓两位教堂接待员，罪加两桩，他被判多坐一年牢。 减去因为表现良好而去除的坐牢时间，司各特在51年零8个月中都不会有资格获得假释。

梯勒的律师在法庭上以这位被害的医生的朋友身份说这个最严厉的判决会使那些反对流产的狂热者们不再那么热衷于攻击（提供流产的）医生们。梯勒的 遗孀， 吉利在判决结果公布以后哭了。

“我们只能希望这个判决结果能起到威慑那些计划谋杀提供流产的人们的作用，”梯勒的家人们说。“监狱管理人员也应该尽他们所能来确定 这个男人不会在他的牢房里继续煽动恨和暴力。”

区域法院法官沃伦－威尔伯特 可以判决司各特在坐牢25年后申请假释。但他说有证据证明司各特跟踪过梯勒，他继续说选择在教堂杀人让这个犯罪活动 特别丑恶因为教堂是个带给人们和平与安宁的地方。

司各特借这个机会描述了在对他的审判过程中不允许他描述的流产程序细节。大多数的流产程序在堪萨斯是合法的，检察官小心的避免把对他的审判变成个对 （流产）问题的全名投票。

司各特谴责威尔伯特“奸诈”，他还说他的审判是不公正的因为他没有被允许陈诉堕胎的害处的证词。他还说上帝对美国不利的审判将要“象草原上的风横扫 这片土地”。

在他说了四十分钟以后，威尔伯特 阻止司各特继续说下去因为听起来他将要在公众场合攻击区域律师诺拉－福尔斯顿。

“提供给你发言的机会不是让你踩到装肥皂的箱子上向公众阐述你的政治信仰。”威尔伯特对司各特说。

后来法官宣布判决结果时，司各特又打断了法官几次。当威尔伯特宣读前次法庭裁决说允许私人复仇主义会引起混乱，司各特说，“谋杀婴儿已经是无政府 主义和混乱。”

在他被带上手铐带走的同时，司各特大声喊叫，“你的双手沾满了婴儿的鲜血。”

在审讯期间，司各特的四位朋友形容他是个友好的有同情心的的男人，他在这个州拒绝阻止梯勒（后期流产）的行为后变得愤怒起来。他（杀人）的行为是 在流产是错误的这个强烈的观点趋使之下，而不是为了使自己出名或引起一场运动，他们说。

“斯科特很想做一位遵纪守法的公民，”一位反对流产的积极分子戴夫－利奇说，“他憎恶无政府主义。他想力所能及的把美国变得更美好。”

李－汤普森，梯勒家里的律师和朋友，称这个谋杀案是国内恐怖主义行为。他说他的办公室至今还有女性打来电话寻求医疗服务。

“他的死亡对世界各地女性的影响就像地震，”汤普森说。 “她们问，我该去哪里？我该怎么做？”我不得不说，‘我很抱歉，我不能告诉你。’这就是这个罪行的影响。“

英文原文：

WICHITA, Kan. – A man who murdered one of the few U.S. doctors who performed late-term abortions used his sentencing hearing as a forum to espouse his views in an effort to justify his crime, arguing that he had chosen to obey “God’s law” to save babies.

Scott Roeder was sentenced Thursday to life in prison with no possibility of parole for 50 years, the longest sentence possible under Kansas law for first-degree murder. The 52-year-old Kansas City, Mo., man killed George Tiller as he was serving as an usher last May in the foyer of the doctor’s church in Wichita.

“I stopped him so he could not dismember another innocent baby,” Roeder said. “Wichita is a far safer place for unborn babies without George Tiller.”

Roeder also was sentenced to an additional year in prison on each of two counts of aggravated assault for threatening two church ushers as he fled. With time off for good behavior, Roeder won’t be eligible for parole for 51 years and eight months.

An attorney for Tiller, speaking in court as a friend of the slain doctor, said the toughest sentence would discourage other anti-abortion zealots from attacking doctors. Tiller’s widow, Jeanne, cried as the sentence for murder was announced.

“We only can hope that this sentence will serve as a deterrent to those who have conspired and continue to conspire to murder abortion providers,” the Tiller family said in a statement. “Certainly everything possible should be done by the prison system to insure that this man does not continue to foment hatred and violence from his prison cell.”

District Judge Warren Wilbert could have made Roeder eligible for parole on the murder charge after 25 years. But he said there was evidence Roeder stalked Tiller and added that killing him in a church made the crime heinous because a house of worship is meant to be “a place of peace and tranquility.”

Roeder took the opportunity to describe abortion procedures in detail, which he had been prohibited from doing during his trial. Most abortions are legal in Kansas, and prosecutors were careful not turn the trial into a referendum on the issue.

Roeder accused Wilbert of “duplicity” and said his trial was a miscarriage of justice because he wasn’t allowed to present testimony then about the evils of abortion. He also said God’s judgment against the U.S. will “sweep over this land like a prairie wind.”

“He will avenge every drop of innocent blood,” Roeder said.

Forty minutes into his remarks, Wilbert stopped Roeder as he was about to publicly attack District Attorney Nola Foulston.

“It is not a forum for you to get on a soap box for you to give your entire political beliefs,” Wilbert told Roeder.

Roeder later interrupted Wilbert several times as the judge pronounced sentence. When Wilbert read from a previous court decision saying that allowing vigilantism would promote chaos, Roeder said, “Baby murder is anarchy and chaos.”

As he was being led away in handcuffs after the sentencing, Roeder shouted, “Blood of babies on your hands.”

During the hearing, four of Roeder’s friends described him as a friendly, compassionate man who became angry at the state’s refusal to stop Tiller’s practice. He was motivated by a strong believe that abortion is wrong, not a desire to become famous or lead a movement, they said.

“Scott longs to be a law-abiding citizen,” said Dave Leach, an anti-abortion activist from Des Moines, Iowa. “He hates anarchy. He wants to do what he can to make America better.”

Lee Thompson, the Tiller family’s attorney and friend, called the murder an act of domestic terrorism. He said his office still receives calls from women seeking medical services.

“The impact of his death on women throughout the world is like an earthquake,” Thompson said. “They ask, where can I go? What will I do?’ I have to say, ‘I’m sorry, I can’t tell you.’ That’s the impact of this crime.”
