Evil goof-ball Zacarias Moussaoui gets life in prison. The talking heads are already criticizing the jury. STOP. The jury is the mechanism we use to decide guilt, mitigations, aggravations, et al. It's imperfect, but much more desirable than the government deciding guilt without a third-party adjudicator. The jury had a lot to weigh, did not seem to be convinced by the "martyrdom" mitigating circumstance, and did their job. Cheers for them. Justice is more important than 9/11 sentiment.
To the pundits like me . . .
MADNESS!
