I don't know. Can he do this?

I doubt it, not unless evidence can be produced of coersion on the part of the prosecution to ensure a conviction. Simply lying about it won't get you off - he'd have to go through the appeal courts I suspect.

Surprise, surprise... I was extremely taken aback by his sudden confession a few weeks ago because it didn't make sense unless he wanted to become a martyr. Well, I guess now that he didn't achieve that thanks to the common sense of his jurors, he needs to recant in order to be able to appeal the verdict. Bizarre to say the least and probably not the last we've heard about this trial.

No indeed. But its safe to say whatever happens with the appeals process he's going to wait a long time in jail.

Charles Manson I think comes up for parole every now and again, and is routinely denied out of hand.

Sounds to me like he just realised - actually he lost not the USA!!

No martyrdom, no audience for his rants...oh how my heart bleeds for him

Tee hee Sarah.

In federal court you cannot appeal your conviction if you plead guilty. Only appeal your sentence. If he can't get his guilty plea set aside he has nothing more he can do.

I guess after he saw that he was going live the rest of his life in a box he figured Allah wasn't so great.
