A young man working as an ICU nurse in Minneapolis, and had worked for the VA, serving our veterans.

He devoted his life to saving others. He wasn't a deranged leftist lunatic.

He was executed today.

RiP.

Update: a good friend of mine from college posted on Facebook that he was friends with him at the U of MN when he was doing grad work in the labs. Other friends of his also started chiming in. Confirmed what everyone is saying: he was a wonderful, kind man.
