Apparently Stroman didn't feel that way--I heard this story on NPR first, and Stroman's attorney said that when he told his client the Bhuiyan was trying to save his life, Stroman broke down in tears and said "That's the first kind thing anyone has ever done for me."
I figure that's probably true for most people, but it's also the kind of value judgment you can't make until you're facing one or the other...
