The man will appeal. Other defendants are coming up for trial.

I expect his sentence will be over before the appeal is matured since the underlying charge is not too stiff a penalty--max 5 years I think.

"Shiraz Syed Qazi, 26, waived his right to a jury trial, opting for a decision from U.S. District Court Judge Lee Rosenthal. The trial lasted 15 minutes."

Real bad judge shopping...for a Mohammedan; borders on malpractice for the public defender.

This man is innocent. I've been assured by many Freepers that the 'Merican way prevents Muslim immigrants from becoming terrorists and desiring sharia law.

"He cannot be subject to criminal liability unless the actor knew he wasn't allowed to do it," Newton argued. "He cannot be criminally punished."


So, he can't be convicted of a crime because he didn't now it was against the law?

IGNORANCE OF THE LAW IS NO EXCUSE.

Moron.
