Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev appeals death sentence — again
[NYPOST] Convicted Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev
...the pretty, ethnic-Chechen college boy from Dagestan who, with his highly connected, “self-radicalized” older brother, used pressure cooker bombs to blow up the Boston Marathon in 2013. The mosque the brothers frequented, the Islamic Society of Boston, is a hotbed of jihadi sentiment and connections to so many different jihadi groups and individuals the mind boggles. It was founded by Clinton Friend and Al Qaeda financier Abdurahman Alamoudi as a Muslim Student Association/Muslim Brotherhood project in 1981. According to Russian intelligence, whose warning about our lads President Obama’s intelligence agencies ignored until afterward, the Tsarnaev boys had lots of jihadi-connected friends back in the Olde Countrie, too, but nobody seems to have found a formal connection between them and any registered jihadi group. He’s been living in Florence Supermax prison since he was sentenced in 2015...
is again trying to avoid execution after his death sentence
...the barbaric practice of sentencing a murderer to be punished for as long as his/her/its victim is dead...
was reinstated by the Supreme Court last month.

Tsarnaev’s attorneys, in a filing on Thursday, asked the US Circuit Court of Appeals to consider four constitutional claims not taken up by the high court.

His lawyers claimed the trial court "improperly forced" Tsarnaev to stand trial in Boston; allowed his "coerced confession" to be admitted as evidence; denied his challenges to two jurors accused of lying during questioning; and dismissed a potential juror because they opposed the death penalty

The appeal was made in response to a Wednesday filing by the appeals court to comply with the Supreme Court’s ruling that Tsarnaev’s execution sentence be reinstated.

"Because these four claims on direct appeal have not yet been adjudicated by any appellate court, Tsarnaev respectfully submits that the April 6 judgment was entered in error and should be vacated," the filing states.

Prosecutors agreed that the defense’s four claims have not been resolved, but said in their response "The government believes that the defendant’s death sentences should be affirmed."

#3 What appeal did his victims get? Timothy McVeigh was already processed by this time. Oh, that's right, his target was the inner party not proles.
