She’s not a Violent, Would-Be Killer, She’s Just ‘Lovelorn’
Background: On numerous occasions I’ve discussed the Lisa Nowak case and the kid gloves treatment she’s received from the media and prosecutors–click here or see my co-authored column Scott Peterson in a space suit (Philadelphia Daily News, 2/26/07). Lisa’s weapons are pictured above.
It’s not often that someone who tried to kidnap and murder a coworker is described as “lovelorn”–at least if they’re male. “Lovelorn” female astronaut/would-be killer Lisa Nowak–who shouldn’t even be out of jail–is asking that her “uncomfortable” ankle monitor bracelet be removed.
Were it a man, the perp would have been described as having been in a “jealous, violent rage,” not “lovelorn.” He probably would be held without bail. If not, he would be laughed out of court if he told the judge he’d like to have his ankle bracelet removed for his “comfort.”
Lovelorn astronaut seeks relief in court
Asks ankle monitor bracelet be removed; Alleged victim ‘still afraid’
By Travis Reed
ORLANDO, Fla. – Former astronaut Lisa Nowak, accused of attacking a romantic rival, asked a judge Friday to let her remove her electronic monitoring ankle bracelet, saying that it cuts her ankle and gets in the way of her military boot laces.
Nowak promised to abide by all court orders if the GPS monitoring device is removed, including not having any contact with Air Force Capt. Colleen Shipman, the woman she is accused of pepper spraying in an airport parking lot.
Shipman’s attorney fought the request.
On the witness stand, Shipman told the judge she is still afraid of Nowak.
“When I’m home alone and there’s nobody there with me, it is a comfort,” she said of the Nowak’s monitoring bracelet.

After being found guilty, the government’s judge is expected to give Nowak a strongly worded suggestion to stay away from men as men are bad. Nowak’s sentence will be suspended.

The prosecutors and mainstream media are bone fide vermin for their “kid glove handling” of that would-be murderer Nowak…………..
Here’s a woman whose chief asset is apparently her inability to successfully pull off a murder, which ought to make anyone with sense and integrity cringe.
Yet the MSM doesn’t want to talk about her…… since she’s “lovelorn”.
Hell, so were MANY would-be and actual killers!
