Court overturns death sentence of Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev

2020-08-01

"Speedbump is still dead"
[NY Post] An appellate court has tossed the death sentence and overturned three of the convictions of 2013 Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.

The ruling will not result in Tsarnaev, 26, being freed, and the death penalty can now be revisited in a penalty-phase trial do-over.

If federal prosecutors do not pursue a second penalty-phase trial, Tsarnaev will remain imprisoned on multiple life sentences that are not affected by Friday's ruling.

"Dzhokhar Tsarnaev will remain confined to prison for the rest of his life, with the only remaining question being whether the government will end his life by executing him," the ruling read.

Tsarnaev is currently in a federal "supermax" prison in Colorado.
Are Epstein's jailers still available?

#1 Cause our robed aristocracy hates America and wants desperately to dictate to it what a 'civilized country' has to be.

Amendment V

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a grand jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the militia, when in actual service in time of war or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

My humble understanding of the English language, implies to me that given due process one may be deprived of their life. Of course I do not have the nuance of years of priestly study in the archaic halls of our aristocracy's caste.
