A federal appeals court on Tuesday threw out the sentence of a man who
was convicted of plotting to bomb Los Angeles International Airport at
the turn of the millennium.
Ahmed Ressam was arrested near the U.S.-Canadian border in December
1999 as he drove off a ferry and customs agents found explosives in the
trunk of his car. Prosecutors said he was intent on bombing the airport
on the eve of the millennium.
The arrest raised fears of terrorism attacks and prompted the
cancellation of millennium celebrations at Seattle's Space Needle.
Ressam was sentenced to 22 years in prison after being convicted off
all nine charges. On Tuesday, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in
San Francisco reversed his conviction on one of the charges and sent
the case back to a lower court to issue a new sentence and explain the
rationale behind the original 22-year term.
That is the WORST reporting I've seen in a very long time. There is no
indication whatsoever as to the grounds the 9th used to reverse the
conviction.

Check out the 9th thing in the list on this page. I haven't read it yet, but
it may help.
Of course, I'm not sure if the source can be trusted. After all, the
information's not coming from an AM radio station, interspersed with
commercials for Garlique and vacuum cleaners. Hopefully, golf boy will still
manage.

For just 5 minutes each day, could you make a monumental effort to not say
something stupid?

You're right. Responding to you is a stupid thing to do.

What is there to dispute, a page full of web links? Why did they
overturn the conviction, Johnny Cochran?

You disputed the source because the web site was not working. When the web
site works, you can read the pdf file yourself. I provided the link and said
earlier that I hadn't read it. I'm busy.

You provided a link to a story you didn't read? Speaking of being
foolish...

No, stupid. Strickland said "That is the WORST reporting I've seen in a very
long time. There is no indication whatsoever as to the grounds the 9th used
to reverse the
conviction." Since he's a real person who'll probably read more about the
case, I gave him the link, and clearly stated that I had NOT read it.
Keep in mind that for the last few messages, you have NOT been arguing about
the case itself. Instead, you've been wasting your time bitching about a web
site that's temporarily having problems. How stupid is that?
Now, go to the site, which is working again, and do your homework. Then, you
can come back and pretend to be a legal expert, like dbu.
