No Death for Nichols
I have to say that this surprised me:
Terry Nichols avoided the death sentence Friday when an Oklahoma jury deadlocked, which means he cannot be executed under Oklahoma law for the Oklahoma City bombing which killed 168 people.
Though I suspected as much when I heard last night that the jury was still deliberating after 3 days. That's usually not a good sign for the prosecution, especially in a case like this.
Just goes to show that you can never predict what a jury will do.
