Fox News
The Department of Justice is asking the Supreme Court to overturn a lower court ruling and reinstate the death penalty for Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.
"The court of appeals improperly vacated the capital sentences recommended by the jury in one of the most important terrorism prosecutions in our nation’s history," the DOJ said in their brief. "This court should reverse the decision below and put this case back on track toward a just conclusion." The DOJ said the jury selection process was thorough, with questions about media exposure, and that there was no requirement to ask every single person detailed questions about what specifically they had seen.More Related News
