How'd that dude get in there? He must have said something nasty about the judge's mother.
Really, David Lane is still alive and living in The Tomb?
Cool.
You know, I'm looking at that list and I'm sad to report that there are more terrorists convicted under Clinton than under Bush.
But then again... Bush doesn't prosecute terrorists, he just kills them or sends them to GTMO.
Back in the early 80's I went to the USP Marion Illinois to speak with Silverstein as a potential witness in a trial where I was appointed to represent another inmate. I was locked up in a cell (within another cell) about 3' x 6' with Silverstein. I had no idea who (or what) he was at the time. Thinking back, I would have been safer going into a lion's den.
It was shortly after that that he killed the guard and the Marion Prison went on its lock down that still continues.
