moossaoui wuz jus funnin. withdrawz plea
2006-05-08
WASHINGTON - Zacarias Moussaoui has said he lied on the stand about being involved in Sept. 11, and he has asked to withdraw his guilty plea. The statement appears in a motion filed in federal court in Alexandria by his attorneys. Moussaoui last week was sentenced to life in prison, after a jury rejected the government's appeal to sentence him to death.

#23  On Monday, Brinkema said his request to set aside his guilty plea and go back to trial on the facts of the case was "too late" under federal rules and must be rejected.

Too bad, Zack. Enjoy Florence. Start counting the days...

#22  No retrial, no resentencing (unless it's death), no appeal, no pity, no remorse, no nuthin' for this two-legged piece of human excrement.

#20  life without parole = no more time (they actually get rid of the body after death :-))

I don't wanna see/hear/smell/know about him anymore - deep dark hollow - no more trials or hearings...buh-bye!

#19  I'm sorry, Frank. I wasn't clear. I meant, no retrial because he says he lied -- he was convicted on the evidence, not his confession. Rather, offer him the option of a new trial specifically for lying under oath, after which he could serve even more time -- the details of which calculation I leave as an exercise for the student.

#18  no new trial. This is a gambit by his atty's for an appeal, dammit. Slam the door and offer a chance to his atty's to join him

#15  New trial for lying on the stand. Mr. Moussaoui may participate by voice-only telephone from his cell, permitted to speak only in response to direct questions. Sentence to be added to the end of the original one.

#13  Take my plea ... please!

#12  Too bad Moussaoui was not Serbian. The US could score diplomatic points by turning him over to the ICC, and he would die in his cell in less than three years.
