The man convicted of orchestrating the January 2005 firebombing of the Harwood Community Association president's home has continued to act as a Baltimore gang leader from his prison cell in Beaumont, Texas, a federal prosecutor said in a court hearing Friday.

Terrence Smith, 28, returned to Baltimore to be resentenced after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit ruled that U.S. District Judge J. Frederick Motz did not adequately explain why he exceeded federal sentencing guidelines in sending Smith to prison for 80 years.

Friday, the judge again sentenced Smith to 80 years, calling him "a dangerous person." There is "no question that this was an attempted murder," Motz said. "It was a botched job, but that doesn't change the intent."

And yet Senator Obama’s Marxist terrorist mentor, partner and friend Bill Ayers is scot free!

All the excuses the “fibbies” and their lackeys in Justice Department add up to one thing ~ Ayers was “their boy” ~ just another undercover operator.

or as he likes to say... guilty as hell and free as a bird.
