US Supreme Court Rejects Mumia Abu-Jamal's Appeal For a New Guilt Phase Trial
• View Translation
by HansBennett | 04.06.2009
Today, the US Supreme Court rejected Mumia Abu-Jamal's appeal for a new guilt-phase trial. The Supreme Court has not yet decided whether to consider the Philadelphia DA's separate appeal, which is attempting to execute Abu-Jamal WITHOUT a new sentencing hearing.
In response to today's rejection, Abu-Jamal's lead attorney Robert R. Bryan will be filing a "petition for re-hearing" at the US Supreme Court.
Listen to Abu-Jamal's own response recorded this morning, interviewed by Noelle Hanrahan of Prison Radio.
