WICHITA, Kan. - A man who says he killed prominent Kansas abortion provider Dr. George Tiller to protect unborn children has been convicted of murdering the doctor.

A jury deliberated for 37 minutes Friday before finding Scott Roeder guilty of premeditated, first-degree murder. The 51-year-old Kansas City, Mo., man faces a mandatory sentence of life imprisonment with the possibility of parole after 25 years.

Roeder testified that he shot Tiller in the head May 31 in the foyer of Tiller's church in Wichita because he believed the physician posed an "immediate danger" to unborn children.

He planned it, he did it, he admitted it. He is guilty.

That was in Maine. Maine abolished the death penalty in 1887. The last person to be executed in Maine was escaped convict Daniel Wilkinson, who was hung on November 21, 1885.
