After being held for more than five years as an enemy combatant and whose Habeas Corpus case was decided by the Supreme Court, Padilla got his day in American courts.
The federal prosecutors forced to amend preferred charges against Padilla and his cohorts, presented their case for three months at a trial before an American Jury. The defense argued translation problems, challenged venue, alleged Command Influence, which was denied as the matter was not tried before a military court, therefore not applicable.
The defense charged racism, nativism, patriotism, anti-Islamism, illegal search and seizure and martyrism against the prosecution's procedures and the court's action.
The trial lasted three months....and after final arguments, the jury was instructed in the law by the presiding judge and retired to deliberations on Tuesday afternoon. The jury was to be sequestered until they reached a verdict.
A Foreman of the jury was selected and the jury agenda set;
Foreman; Where do we want to go here.....for dinner? And What's the movie tonight at the hotel? I propose we get in a pleasant evening with dinner and a movie before we wrap this up.
Jurors #s 6,8,2,10 and 3 seconded in unison and jurors #s 1, 4, ,12, 6 and 11 studied the movie options and menu, finally coming to a decision, relenting to the intense pressures in the deliberation room avoiding a hung jury.
