Uh huh. Yup.

So who's legally responsible for mob boss #2's death, the cop killer who freed mob boss #1, or mob boss #1 who killed mob boss #2? Don't go talking about insanity pleas, it's a pretty simple question that essentially mirrors the situation in Iraq to a T (maybe a Q, who knows?).

When someone is freed to behave in a way that he couldn't have while under the control of others, and this someone behaves badly, is he responsible for his bad actions or does the responsibility for his bad actions lie with his liberator, from a legal perspective? Methinks the law is generally going to blame him, or every twice convicted felon would not be in jail, the guy who let him out of prison would be in jail.
