Lightbulb UF courts Kevorkian for speech
UF courts Kevorkian for speech

Fresh off his release from prison, Jack Kevorkian may be headed to the University of Florida.

UF's student-run speaker's bureau, known as Accent, has offered Kevorkian $50,000 to come speak at UF, Accent officials confirmed Tuesday. Negotiations are ongoing, but Accent has asked Kevorkian to visit UF Oct. 11.

Kevorkian, an advocate of euthanasia, was released from prison June 1 after serving a eight-year sentence for first-degree murder. In 1999, Kevorkian was sentenced to 10-25 years for second-degree murder in the poisoning of a man with Lou Gehrig's disease.
