That's what I call Friday treatment they have does that work and Friday is more often. I had no idea that Wendy Murphy was -- committed join us this Friday this is truly one of the great benefits of -- and I don't get up this early for just for an address or anybody and I am thrilled that you that you have an -- on that you did in between now and how if you act thrilled. I have a cup of coffee -- dinner is over -- talking -- his presidential advisers on such nonsense and you know what I'm gonna -- so happy that you I guess it's kinda take Monday off. I'm gonna I real I think I needed extra day just because a mobile -- that -- this is just that the what is community treatment pop pop pop pop and he has a babel iris and I are at.

Did six point 72666868 is the number email address -- T Finneran at WRKO dot com. Wendy we were talking about this case off the cape doctor Ian -- Boskin. You may recall in early April just around Easter situation in the home and -- make a long story short. When he is of abuse and she shoots her husband he's dead in this grand jury investigation so on and so forth. The grand jury decides not to indict they do not proceed to an indictment -- commend Michael O'Keefe fraud his role as the DA in the grand jury for Sharon but I think is immense. Common sense and good judgment on this. And now she's petition never licensed to practice medicine or shoes restored. The little some articles in newspaper Rwanda in the herald in the globe I say restore this what is. There's Serbia hang out there shouldn't be a slowdown issued just -- should be -- close to a rubber stamp. Affirmative decision restored this woman's license. As as possible and yet. Not just rich -- but -- a -- have been calling in saying wait a minute. This is premeditated she had ample opportunity to leave she's not she's mentally imbalanced should put up with a for 20 years I would not want to doctor who's mentally imbalanced. Why didn't she leave she's a bright woman she could -- kneecap them instead issued --

And say what are you all the -- crazy out yet. An -- now -- mom I'm hoping that you know one of the crazy ones because -- close proximity we might come think it would medical we might be grapple and here -- a moment they July.

little -- and I do work in this field is in doubt and I I totally different Michael keep the big -- I defer to his judgment that the injury is not and whether it's a woman who kills me an apartment look at -- permanent appointment. -- that it self defense it's the job of the prosecutor to figure that out and not to waste my tax dollars prosecuting someone who really has. The winning case in terms of proving that they were acting in self defense. I'm fine with that and I don't know you know if I have reason to believe that that was wrong the wrong judgment I would say. You know Michael O'Keefe you did grunting you gotta go after her let a jury decide -- don't you decide -- the government to -- entered its back. Here's the thing. Sympathetic to the people who say -- 620 years later -- academic competition -- that's it I'm Stan. I stand out here Monday to sign up --

it. Oh yeah her 18 year old son is is that in Boston College he's acting out before he leaves the feeling that's right when I predict when he needs copy with a with whom I had with a chase and as we get closer to that day currency what's your take on.

Assess I'm not gonna say that this was a right decision by a status. It's always going to be. That's the the measuring stick now for the next case in the next case in the next case when the next woman kills her husband and says well what about doctor -- ski what I worry about is the idea that it's ever acceptable to kill a human being and -- and you gotta send a different message period because life is that valuable that's how I feel. And so I predicted that she would it be prosecuted for some lesser sentence okay murderers definitely to matched. Perhaps an outright acquittal would have in the result but not now when once kills another human being it's appropriate to do something I -- punishment now that decision's been made -- out of my hands. There is no reason my opinion. To connect the dots between. Whatever went on her private life and her medical practice for what I've read and show me she's a crappy doctor you like to wiping its. Of you know the Michael -- controversy he slaughters dogs for fun he's got this you know little mini. The Roman coliseum ancient. -- disgusting game thing go on on which is inhumane in the extremes so uncivilized again in the NFL so it's like a licensed to practice right should he. Faster than this one and shouldn't he. -- stripped of his license to play in the NFL even though it's not technically licensed my point is that. That's the kind of person who deserves to lose their job and be prosecuted this woman issue should be prosecuted. Reasonable people disagree but it is it too with her license to --

Repellent that's right with there ability in practice medicine so that's why -- say let's do a trifecta. I'm happy with the grand jury decision -- happy with Michael keeps discretion and judgment very sound professionalism not a cheap headline that he went in pursuit of you know prosecutors and on the cheap headline -- the years and years and -- plenty of them around town. In now like to get the -- are gonna want the border registration restore it AS AP. A want to take some calls on this though Wendy Murphy Tom Finneran -- 6172666868 is that about. Bill is college from Cambridge the people's republic they've bill welcome.

Yeah hike and I what Iraq -- with when the -- issue there. And I think and it would -- maybe can shed some light on this is the defective -- Was carried a gun tension in an abusive relationship for 20 years has tons of great. It just seems like you know it's it's we ever got that stroke so you know into it that it's just -- a better time for the right circumstances could.

Probably makes -- a little bit more combustible I would yeah I I I I I would say we I would agree with it it adds that the combustion of the mix.

And -- doesn't get the financial ability to -- that's a citizen has intelligence to note that. At that -- I think at some responsibilities you know

the anti appoint bill into Wendy's point when she was just kind of responding to my inquiry. The grand jury that would have does -- not have the ability if they choose to indict far of something less in British so they could have conceded manslaughter -- missile -- a -- B -- the like an end to come back the way they did -- parent I mean we're just slept with just speculating we don't have all the evidence but apparently the body of evidence was so compelling and so in generated so much sympathy -- empathize with --

Woman not enough you know what sympathy is not good enough just because your pathetic character is not an excuse for the law to give you -- pass what's her name. You know the mine who just shot her minister husband in the back got no pitcher and a married -- pay went -- DM Minnie mouse weighs all of 80 pounds -- starter husband.

No it doesn't but in this case Wendy at least -- of what what we're reading out of the newspaper reports particularly the globe. The guy is in this confrontation not only does he beat you to a pulp the night before in front of the a two year old grandson by the way there is some putts this I cannot get my mind.

Shot president whenever a little cute girls it's the -- this -- is confronting the father and obviously -- that enough is enough -- that the father threatens to slice the -- of the -- she pulls -- god this is also invited you know -- these moments in the dynamics of these rooms. When when when the emotions are running high. He churns out here -- stats approaching -- says. You so dead in don't even know what is that -- and that is approaching a guy who punched your -- they Hamburg. Nonstop for 20 years she pulls that she can't act I mean so.

Disagreeing with -- in this case but here's what I'd like the message to gossipy. If you can show. That you to aid the traditional means in terms of calling the police do get a restraining that are doing what we offer us. I've seen an awful lot of cases where women and abused children to try. They get their butts kicked the cops don't listen the judges don't believe that they -- would be a better wife and and you won't get your butt kicked you'll get punched in the face -- a better meatloaf. Those kind of cases I -- a 100% on board it's like vigilantism that's what I tolerate vigilantism in the system kid doesn't wear -- I don't see that in this case it doesn't mean. I don't agree with the results but I into the public doesn't say well she -- it.

it is certainly don't want it to become a shoot out at the OK corral for every time there's a marital I meant to some that the disagreement. Jack it's Colin from south the hate Jackie up next on ignorance for a may M 680 WRK oh good morning program -- to jacket thanks for being so patient Jack

you agree with the non indictment of the Granger. It's so easy for people not involved in such a life threatening situation happens in Munich garbage -- something I -- I have no portion relationship with the proposed to believe there's open. If I mean at a premium over in that situation. It's not a single condone which keep it be you know something I think when he she did take appropriate measures should be try to get help psychological help she did inform people that she was being abused and you don't those abuses do over the years they've threatened disposed if you leave me I'll kill you. So basically she's defending her life in his son's life. It I have no problem the -- I do have a problem though with other warden or sitting in jail right now. Who killed their husbands or boyfriends who weren't totally abuse of who. -- life was in danger I have a problem with those woman being in jail because I think -- unequal. And it's not Syria. However there are so many -- views -- but don't call the police and -- restraining go to. That I I just my heart goes out the dark about -- because she's going to live with this but the practical life in all of us are going to have our opinions but we weren't there we didn't know. How much -- like we didn't know how she felt that the time but it just it's it's not render it and I understood when he -- trepidation what this decision. Even though in this case you should do agree with the I -- when he repeated current -- in northern.

Yes that's the one of the sand now.

Right well sometimes don't -- when the usually takes the pro prosecution style when he usually wants to put a lot of people and killed this isn't I think sometimes yeah but I'd -- at the television when he wanted to -- that's -- why you -- good to -- you -- you very articulate very -- But this case I I agree -- of the -- be I I agree with the greater decision with a little but it.

Yeah I got -- I. Great look -- this was the wrong result I think. We always have used these kind of cases as a way of understanding these systems and in the problems more. If there's a lesson to be learn here why didn't she call police why did she you know cover up. The fact that she was abused literally protect him this woman who was highly educated -- Knows yet resource is money a lot of women. Stay because they're choose between homelessness and -- now and they don't want to kits to be hurt and so forth and they don't want their kids to starve to death. So why this woman what did she now wishes you luck in --

Words Wendy's she's saying for many years it was safer from my sons from my family and meat from me to stay I was trained to quote. Fix things and I learned too late that domestic abuse cannot be fixed by -- by the abused I didn't I feel so start this from a because there's a pot of her. That is dead forever she and I I give the benefit -- coming in all soft becoming a romantic army anything you want lot of people do anyway but. I think it was not a lot of and I think it was out of hope hope. That the change you'll love this guy in might be alcoholism Wendy and might be a drug problem and might be physical and violent abuse like this. Yup hope -- change 11 -- life.

Context we called it. Very dysfunctional enabling -- now so I I don't disagree that that may well explain why she stayed despite the fact that she had all -- topic to see her speak publicly about exactly what it was that led her from. As seemingly happily happily happy marriage in the beginning to. Such destructive forces are fully as a doctor she asked her female patients every time she met them. Is everything okay aren't I being noticed are there any violence going on there and she wasn't even confronting that would herself.

it should make excuses she apparently -- you know physically fit an athletic and growing for -- associates should explain to colleagues to bruise a year on the marquee -- always playing basketball at the kids in the driveway she was a run -- I felons tripped over -- on the pavement doesn't like that in in got banged up. Andy right in many many ways it it is enabling an at the same time -- I say GR this -- to be said for loyalty and affection and an extra tax try to stay with. She -- a public speak to each time I'd really like to hear six point 72666868 is the number Tom Finneran here Wendy Murphy right here in the jackal pilot seat and you are next Greg scholar from corporal -- Greg. Welcome governor -- forum.

Opposite they'd probably thank you guys are also a huge question I would do you -- it for -- great one degree yet it's you -- well in this case right or everyone's second commissioner muggy morning quarterback our our issue which Richie was educated she was physically -- condition etcetera etcetera but. The British acting immediately or over it's so throughout Russia is. -- mitigate used to putting out what -- evil beers one step but it that's by by the inaugural week. You know maybe a month ago I want that -- in -- you ever. You'd immediately caught Cox asked after a couple of years it gradually push you know image shoving a little -- an airline. At some point you just going to like -- dating -- at least normal albeit good.

Greg a year. I I -- Greg Greg Greg he's that's rarely is like a genius he it is and you know what I liked the frog metaphor -- so -- girls. But you that you become acclimated so. So comfortable in a sense with abuse you don't anymore including even when it gets -- and senate.

Becomes to great point it becomes easy because you ratcheted it up a notch at a time and finally over pretty huge apartment at a level that's so hideous. Other people honest with -- like the student body comment it is being analytical and -- very much in the septic about a -- How how could she possibly do what to what he is of raising a family again a lot of the loyalty the affection he had Greg let's let -- cited as one. Absolutely is in all of us to different degrees hope. Hope a sense of hope all the presidential candidates are running out the you know what they're trying to do they're trying to ignite something called hope. This woman had hope you hope your husband would change for the better because she loved her husband and end of story Greg that is a great. Call appreciate the call 6172666868 is the about let's go for -- is Colin from Quincy -- next on theater forum.

I didn't want to operate aren't great frantic I'd say it's a great excellent. And I like act it. I don't like about it and I.

Fred take. Franchisees sell fond we video at some telecom company but. What they have let's go to the let's -- we can get Dennis -- scholar from Westwood maybe France you'll be at the call back in a minute. Dennis you are next on veterans for a may M 680 WRK ago.

A terrific thank you taking my call you welcomed us district just a quick comment tight a a -- one believe that it result is fine. I think it should have been processed go to a -- and maybe even a public process just -- just be your alter ego well like -- question you guys would be. She -- her life to the general practitioner and that's really innocuous question in the past it was -- If you wanted to license stuck with that make a difference you guys.

Well I think what he's suggesting is. You know maybe if she's edgy nervous at all all I can and I don't you know why I think a fair question to ask is there's something about her psychologically. That I have heard so shock -- for the years that she was married -- literally led her to be that desperate white she was she killed them is she psychologically capable of doing very sensitive.

But but if but if that was the case the border registration would have some evidence of this us that this anxiety disorder or whatever will we might call it. Affecting your ability to do that high levels usury Dennis you know which in which really they're performing at an AA in incredible level commanded scale.

He's just an intern may be is saying she should -- to -- at this point. If your defense to murder case it is I was a psychological mess I think people aren't door to be psychologically tested before you get that -- if you do some sensitive work.

And it and it but the fact you know the market will dictate how our practice will go in terms of patient commentary incorruptible. But oftentimes the purest version you don't have the article luxury that they can shoot and somebody who goes on the the night under doctor about -- I you know under different circumstances may not have chosen -- currently -- the surgeon.

I -- that -- you know that that's a great point I do think your defense from what I'm reading from each of the newspaper radicals would have read about this case. Her defense was not -- as a psychological -- arraigned -- kind of mental mess. But it was just literally self defense the guy who have been beaten to a pulp of 20 years is now interface and yet you are so dead you don't have any idea what it's not a lot I mean it's it's it's just one of the other self defense as opposed to -- please feel pity for me because I'm not capable of I I I think it would --

But you know it's really funny Richard -- the cross dressing murderous off -- an idiot jerk that he was. I'm doctor Richard -- who killed his wife was. Stick lasers and knives in people's spaces for years while he was. Yes laced ideologically carrying announced and he got to keep his license we haven't I like magic eyes -- think it's probably want to as she now what is that you raised Dennis thank you call 6172666868 is that I -- Margaritas Colin from -- to behave Bahrain ally via.

I'll audio like 90 you -- YE house. Not able don't opt for all of all 1910 to 20 -- Yeah yeah. I know a -- that idea like that I know I know we're -- well.

I didn't I didn't say she didn't have an out clearly weakened sit in judgment and she could she couldn't shake it looked back and reflect upon it and she hoped. And she encouraged her husband and actually at some point seven years ago apparently he took steps went to counts and for a little bit. Did not stay with it became increasingly violent she hope and hope that all -- you can you can make -- remark read and you could take -- night.

it go at it until it. -- that I would -- you would I would not expect I don't think.

Okay and and -- but we're going to -- let's be fair about this. He -- she stayed for the sake -- children.

Almighty like the --

It has nothing to do what that it would Italy's lira -- Wait a minute Barney Barney stopped not a pre DM minute how many how many husbands if you go out there are you going to begin meeting whoever shot up. Jesus -- a good product and ready --

The -- on.

I'm nervous I I get I I I guess you. She's in the situation and she makes that judgment that staying is bad effort children. You might have made the judgment Irene that leaving his bed at the our children. -- ridiculous situations in which women have made. Those type decisions for the for the best reasons -- did you know or contradict myself at all your.

I listened. I I upper Maureen your permanent because I I just got from marina at one point you -- does not always better for the children to stay. Children I didn't do you analyze that her parents judgment it is sad to see me saying that destroys the children -- in a different way and it's not even fixable sometimes Murray.

I think it reasonably well maybe it does and maybe it doesn't but it just. Maariv -- her judgment was that her children would be even greater danger by leaving. How do you Monday morning quarterback that judgment.

You think her kids are not going to be messed up for -- and got no kids and pay for their mental health care to get repaired from daddy's -- for 20 years by the way are you you'll if you legislature to take my tax dollars to try to fix it be noted momma just --

You would -- guy you know I would you. What's.

What I -- current. You break out the red --

Moderated from nearly dark by god almighty she has no -- idea she likes that no sense of love no sense of hope no sense of loyalty they've ever husband cheated on it which have a husband -- she's awed by this point at this point -- an -- for -- husband cheated on -- you just walk out the duo -- she show a sense of forgiveness and that restraint and -- look at what.

Stay calm lot strike you're out got to got to -- if you don't like worrying because she it's tough I'd like doctor grew by asking who try to -- she's she's still mention their even Lyle and how when she stops -- you guys indictment that I liked. Hypocrisy you would -- read you -- that died and they are going to get back to -- it's

this is one of the our corporate obligations ways to manage the sound the management the breaking glass place. That's the WRKO will call window it just up broke at
