PHILADELPHIA -- A federal appeals court on Tuesday ordered a new sentencing hearing for convicted police killer and death-row activist Mumia Abu-Jamal, finding for a second time that the death-penalty instructions given to the jury at his 1982 trial were potentially misleading.
The 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals told prosecutors to conduct the new sentencing hearing for the former Black Panther within six months or agree to a life sentence. Abu-Jamal's first-degree murder conviction still stands in the fatal shooting of Officer Daniel Faulkner, who was white.

It never ends. Going on 30 years now.
Maybe Obama will pardon him and hold a beer conference at the White House with the relatives of the dead officer, if they are still available.

finding for a second time that the death-penalty instructions given to the jury at his 1982 trial were potentially misleading. Gosh, maybe I can help. Here's the death-penalty instruction: Kill the SOB!

The 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals told prosecutors to conduct the new sentencing hearing for the former Black Panther within six months or agree to a life sentence.I'm sure most moonbat libtards will fail to see that the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals options do not include a new trial on his guilt or innocence, just his death sentence.
Personally, let the bastard live whatever life he has left rotting away in jail......cause they never will fry his ass as he justly deserves

I would love to see him fry, but maybe a life sentence would be better. Let him disappear into obscurity. See how many of his Hollywood buddies want to talk about him once their pet project of the Death Penalty is off the table. Either that or have him shived by some hate group in prison. That would also take the martyrdom away from this creep.
