US Court Overturns Boston Marathon Bomber Dzhokar Tsarnaev's Death Penalty Sentence



Daily Mail: Court OVERTURNS Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokar Tsarnaev's death penalty and orders new sentencing trial for 2013 terror attack that killed three and wounded 264

* A federal appeals court overturned the death sentence of Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev on Friday
* Tsarnaev's lawyers had argued that intense media coverage had made it impossible to have a fair trial in Boston
* They also pointed to social media posts from two jurors suggesting they harbored strong opinions even before the 2015 trial started
* The April 15, 2013, attack killed three people and injured more than 260 others
* His brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev, was killed in a gun battle with police days after the two brothers detonated the two pressure cooker bombs

Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev has had his death sentence overturned by a federal appeals court after his lawyers successfully argued some jurors had already decided he was guilty before his trial had even started.

The three-judge panel of the 1st US Circuit Court of Appeals in Boston issued the decision on Friday more than six months after arguments were heard in the case.

The same type of people, who believe in the Russian Collusion hoax, are the same type of people, who would not listen to the Russian FSB about how bad Tsarnaev's were.

The Russian Collusion Hoaxers are responsible for those dead and maimed.

Well at least the suits didn't deny the perp deliberately killed. Death of others was his goal and he succeded. The deaths were enhancements to this creature's "statement". That his scheduled demise was overturned for alledged bias on the part of some jurors, according to the suits, doesn't refute what he deliberately did. And that is why what's his name shouldn't live another minute; this was a deliberate act, the success of which was "glorified" by the death and destruction of others. The more the better. As was this creature's victims' fate he should also no longer be amongst the living. Consider his demise the price of admission to the Hall of Fame to what ever cause he felt his act made it's twisted statement.
The suits' reasoning is an insult.
