Justice For Maureen Faulkner? Finally?

The 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals is very close to a decision as to whether or not:

"Were the jury instructions confusing?"

"Was the trial judge biased in a later hearing?"

"In addressing the jury, did the prosecutor downplay the likelihood of a capital sentence's ever being carried out?"

"And - a key contention in Abu-Jamal's appeals - were African Americans purposely excluded from the jury?" (items in quotes are taken directly from the news article)

Read the latest in the saga of Fallen Hero, Daniel Faulkner and his widow, Maureen:

Here's to holding on to a thread of hope that this piece of garbage gets his death sentence reinstated and carried out as swiftly as possible.

God Bless the Faulkner family and their close-knit "family" of supporters.
