Benjamin Schreiber, an Iowa prisoner serving a life sentence for murder, made a bizarre legal argument after a medical emergency in 2015. 🏥⚖️ His heart stopped during treatment for severe sepsis, but doctors resuscitated him, and he later claimed that because he had technically died, his “life sentence” had already been completed.
The Iowa courts rejected the argument, ruling that a life sentence means imprisonment for the remainder of a person’s natural life. The appeals court essentially concluded that if Schreiber was alive, he remained imprisoned—and if he were actually dead, the appeal would be moot. 😳🔒
