Bad news is that it rejected it without comment which still leaves the possibility that he will get a new sentencing hearing: (h/t The Anti-MOVE/Mumia Blog)
The Supreme Court has rejected an appeal for a new trial for death row inmate Mumia Abu-Jamal, convicted in the 1981 killing of a Philadelphia police officer.
The justices did not comment on their action Monday, which leaves in place a state Supreme Court ruling upholding Abu-Jamal’s murder conviction.
Separately, a federal appeals court also has upheld the conviction, but ordered a new sentencing hearing.
Officer Daniel Faulkner was shot to death after pulling over Abu-Jamal’s brother in an overnight traffic stop.
When you have time check out the newly redesigned website Justice For Police Officer Daniel Faulkner which has tons of information, documents and evidence to support the conviction of Mumia Abu-Jamal.
