Cops shot him too many times? NYC bomber wants reduced sentence for HIS pain and suffering
2017-05-11
[BizPacReview] Ahmad Rahimi,
......the probably Taliban-trained Afghan-American whose various bombs in New York and New Jersey caused havoc last September. His name also appears in our archives as Ahmad Khan Rahmani and Ahmad Khan Rahami...
the terrorist responsible for the New York City bombing in September of 2016, wants a reduced prison sentence for the pain and suffering he has faced.

The bomber’s attorney asked prosecutors to consider his "mental and physical health" as part of a plea agreement, arguing that his pain should be considered equally to the victims he injured and tried to kill.

Federal court documents show that the lawyers defending the terrorist argue that because police shot him 11 times, he has experienced "brain injuries, limited longevity, and/or post-traumatic stress disorder."
Maybe he is beyond the ability to live a rewarding life and should be, out of compassion, put down?

#8  The police shot him 11 times? WTH is wrong with NYC cops? Here in Texas only one shot seems to work, even for innocent ones.

#7  Crusader, if that doesn't work, repeat as necessary.

#6  I'm in favor of shooting him one additional time and then asking him if he'd like to reconsider his position?

#5  The Officer should train up so he can kill the next one.

#3  Perhaps he can be.... unshot, controlled reverse kinetics, etc. (Exit wounds become points of entry, bullets retrieved, etc.)

#2  Agree Darth but it may be that they didn't shoot him in the right place.
