Appeals court upholds Atlanta Olympics bomber Eric Rudolph life sentences
Fox News
Atlanta Olympics bomber Eric Rudolph will remain bound by his multiple life sentences for that attack and three others, an appeals court ruled on Monday.
"Eric Rudolph is bound by the terms of his own bargain. He negotiated to spare his life, and in return he waived the right to collaterally attack his sentences in any post-conviction proceedings," Judge Britt Grant wrote in the opinion.
