    Yeah, the absurd terrorism charges are probably possible to beat, so no reason to plead guilty to them. They are probably not questioning the murder charges, but that’s beside the point.

      I’m sure they’re contesting all of it. There isn’t a downside and a conviction depends on the state having all its ducks in a row, which they do fuck up sometimes.

      There is also even a real possibility that he’s innocent and they’re trying to pin it on him.
