Police: Serial Rape Suspect Tried To Hang Self

The man suspected of terrorizing women with sexual assaults from Virginia to Rhode Island over 12 years tried to hang himself in his cell Saturday, but survived and was treated at a hospital, police said.

Aaron Thomas, 39, was returned to jail after a brief hospital stay, New Haven police Officer Joe Avery said Saturday night. Thomas is scheduled to appear Monday in New Haven Superior Court.

Police said Saturday that DNA confirmed that the unemployed truck driver is the East Coast Rapist, suspected in attacks on at least 17 women.

Beats me but I would think they are the ONLY ONES who would have any right to say that.

To 8:27-The fact that the taxpayers are the ones who will foot the bill to keep this animal alive and in protective custody for the rest of his useless life should give them the right to have a say in the matter. I know what I think doesn't change anything in the big picture, but as an American I (think) I still have a right to my opinion, whether you like it or not.
