Anonymous McCartneyf's Journal: US vs. Jose Padilla

Well, it's been decided. The US government is going to try Jose Padilla for "murder-conspiracy." This almost didn't happen--there was a question about whether this charge was "double jeopardy." (How did I miss the first case?) But an appeals court is letting the trial go forward, assuming that he's declared sane enough to have one, so it'll be harder for those of us on /. to use him as an example of government injustice. Especially if the government finds him guilty...
Trial starts in April if Padilla is declared sane.
