Rubashkin Hospitalized

Ex-Agriprocessors manager taken to hospital.

Jeff Reinitz of the Waterloo-Cedar Falls Courier writes in the Courier's live trial blog:

Defense attorney Montgomery Brown said Sholom Rubashkin was taken to the hospital over the weekend bc of an infection. It doesn't appear Rubashkin will be availble for court today.

When are we going to hear about the hunger strike because the hospital doesn't have food that's under proper sectarian hashgacha?

Where is he infected?

[harold]

I wish him a Refuah Shleimah.

[Robert Wisler]

Ditto Harold, a Refuah Shleimah both in body and soul.

Let's hope a round of antibiotics takes care of it.

[Concerned for the Postville Area...]

Hope the criminal has insurance? I don't want my tax dollars paying. Suffer and feel the pain he has dished out for sooooooooo long!
Does anyone know what part of his body is hurting?

[justice seeker]

Dear Concerned: I heard through the grapevine that the infected body part was his soul.

[Concerned for the Postville Area...]

Good one justice seeker!! Let me add it's like a virus which infects all the cult which follows him!

Medical care for prisoners is paid for by the taxpayer.

[Robert Wisler]

Please, let the guy alone. He's suffering enough being in prison (the worst experience that a person can go through).... Just wish him well and get on with it.

While I realize that this blog's readers have not committed crimes such as SMR has been convicted of, we are all in danger of finding ourselves in the horrific position of being put into prison for some offense that we didn't even know was against the law.

Again, don't hypocritically gloat over SMR's "fall", just pray that God has mercy on him, all of the people who were damaged by his offenses, and yourself. One never knows the scale or timing of Divine punishment.

CFTPA,

One of the things an even vaguely country does is provide health care for its prisoners. Shlomo Rubashkin is a prisoner and has a condition which deserves hospitalization. He belongs in the hospital, yes, at taxpayers' expense.

[yidandahalf]

It must have been one desperate bug to bite Rubash-in.

[Yerachmiel Lopin]

I believe he is suffering from a bovine hoof in mouth infection. It's very hard to cure.

Yes, if you live in Somalia.

[yidandahalf]

After giving this latest theatre some thought, I have come to believe the asshole probably bit himself.

[justice seeker]

Sorry folks not a "bug bite" at all, just some of SMR's pent up corruption starting to fester and ooze. Repentance and restitution would be an effective remedy.
