USCA1 Hears Boston Marathon Bomber Case

| 0 Comments
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit heard oral argument today in the case of the surviving Boston Marathon Bomber, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. Jon Kamp has this report for the WSJ. Looks like the main issues are change of venue and jury selection. There is also an argument about the defense's attempt to introduce evidence implicating the older brother in another murder, but the probative value of that seems quite weak.
The case is United States v. Tsarnaev, No. 16-6001.
