Kevorkian to be paroled in June


By KATHY BARKS HOFFMAN, Associated Press
LANSING, Mich. - Assisted suicide advocate Jack Kevorkian will be paroled in June, state Corrections spokesman Leo Lalonde said Wednesday.
Kevorkian, who claimed to have assisted in at least 130 deaths in the 1990s, was imprisoned in 1999 for his role in the last of the deaths.
The ailing former pathologist has promised he would not assist in a suicide if he was released from prison. He is 78.
