Mumia loses chance for new trial!!!!-1/2

Following Mixed Court Ruling, Mumia Abu-Jamal's Lead Attorney Maintains Hope for Overturning Conviction
A federal appeals court Thursday refused to overturn the conviction of imprisoned journalist and former Black Panther Mumia Abu-Jamal and rejected his call for a new trial. However, the long-awaited ruling said Abu-Jamal, who has been on death row for twenty-six years, deserves a new sentencing hearing because of flawed jury instructions. If he is re-sentenced, he will face either death or life in prison without parole. We speak to Abu-Jamal's lead attorney, Robert Bryan. [includes rush transcript]

Well, seeing as Mumia has been off death row for almost a decade now, I don't think you have anything to worry/complain about.

Mumia is the definitive folk hero IF he fatally shot the racist pig who was assaulting his brother. The real victim is Mumia, not the felonious pig garbage whom supposedly he killed. I celebrate each time a felon dies, whether or not he is a criminal coward who hides behind a badge. Mumia is not perfect (who is?), but in terms of character, he is still many notches above the scumbag whom he supposedly killed. We will never know what really happened because Mumia did not receive a fair trial.

@MrSchwermetalle Have you read the transcripts? Read them at danielfaulkner Read the entire trial transcript and then see if you can say he is innocent. Based on your crude language you are probably illiterate, so maybe have your mom read them to you (I doubt you know who your daddy is). You are welcome to come to Las Vegas for an ass kicking if you want.

For you Mumia supporters! Isaiah 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
