| Al-Arian Jury Gets Instructions |
| 2005-11-14 |
| The fate of former University of South Florida professor Sami Al-Arian and three other men accused of running an American cell for a Palestinian terrorist group should be in jurors' hands this afternoon. U.S. District Judge James Moody was about a fourth of the way through reading the nearly 100-page jury instructions when the trial broke for lunch Monday. Al-Arian, Ghassan Ballut, Hatim Fariz and Sameeh Hammoudeh are charged with four conspiracy counts alleging racketeering, conspiring to commit murder abroad and to provide material support to the Palestinian Islamic Jihad. They could face life in prison if convicted. |

| #3 Thanks for the tip, Frank. I just remembered that I have to be on call for jury duty next Monday. I will tell them my thought processes (as found on RB) and we will see how receptive they are at the State Court. Wonder if I will have access to RB on the internet after my contempt of court citation, heh. |
