Prosecutors Don't Want Famed Nun Testifying in Boston Marathon Bomber Trial

 

So, her so called credentials are, she's a nun and she opposes the death penalty, and susan sarandon portrayed her in a movie.

========================

Federal prosecutors want the nun who inspired the movie "Dead Man Walking" to be prevented from testifying in the case of the Boston Marathon bomber, according to court records.

 

At a sidebar conference with U.S. District Court Judge George O'Toole, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev's defense team said that they may rest their case as early as today after jurors hear testimony from Sister Helen Prejean, a staunch death penalty opponent.

Susan Sarandon played Sister Helen in a 1995 movie starring Sean Penn about her relationship with a convicted rapist and killer. In real life, she became a spiritual advisor to that death row inmate, Elmo Patrick Sonnier, and was there when he was executed in an electric chair nicknamed "Gruesome Gertie."

Prosecutors told the judge yesterday they planned to file a motion to "exclude the testimony of Sister Helen Prejean."

Just showing you the kind of hate baiting you so often throw at me when I comment on some religious topic.  And where do you come off with the "so-called credentials" business? Are you the arbiter of who is and who is not a properly credentialed witness.  By any reasonable standard, she should qualify as an "expert witness" on the subject of the death penalty.

Hate baiting? Where? I'm sure it's not only me that knows that opposing the death penalty and being a nun doesn't make one a properly credentialed/expert witness. So, FAIL! You get the buzzer again.

Once more you FAIL!!

Boston bomber told nun 'no one' should suffer as his victims did.

          "He said it emphatically. He said no one deserves to suffer like they did," said the 76-year-old nun, Sister Helen Prejean, whom the defense called to testify as it wrapped up its case to spare Tsarnaev's life.

          "I had every reason to think that he was taking it in and that he was genuinely sorry for what he did," she said.

 

 

And the victim's families and others shouldn't have to suffer through a freaking RC nun taking up for a stinking terrorist bomber. Welcome to the USA 2015, with lots more to come if you keep putting  dems/liberal ******** in office.

Yes the President will pardon him after he (the Pres) has totally militarized the nation, confiscated all privately-owned guns, shipped dissenters off to those FEMA camps, and authorized, by executive order the immediate  immigration of half a million declared  ISIS jihadists into the U.S.

The following day every pig in Iowa will sprout wings and fly.

Boston Bombing Brings Twist to Cold Murder Case

The stalled investigation into a gruesome 2011 triple murder in the leafy suburb of Waltham, Mass., has taken a dramatic turn in the days since two explosions ripped through the crowd during the final stretch of the Boston Marathon.

In the two weeks since those blasts erupted 12 seconds apart, FBI agents have begun working with prosecutors to interview family members and friends of the three victims in the unsolved Waltham slayings, law enforcement authorities tell ABC News. Family members of two victims told ABC News they had been contacted by FBI agents about the case in recent days. The agents' interest has been sparked by an overlooked connection between accused bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev and one of the victims in the case, Brendan Mess.

Mess and his two friends; Raphael Teken, 37, and Erik Weissman, 31, had their throats slit late on Sept. 11, 2011, the 10-year anniversary of the 9-11 attacks. Last week, prosecutors confirmed to ABC News that they were trying to determine whether Tsarnaev had any link to the case.
