Terror Conspiracy Conviction

Nosair was still serving time in prison on the New York state assault and weapons charges when he was convicted as part of the federal trial of the "Blind Sheik" Omar Abdel-Rahman. Both received life sentences without parole for a terror conspiracy, in Nosair's case life plus 15 years imprisonment. It was ruled that Kahane's death was part of the total "seditious conspiracy." Nosair is serving his sentence at the United States Penitentiary, Marion, a federal prison in Illinois.

Famous quotes containing the words terror, conspiracy and/or conviction:

    Sixty years ago they smiled
    At lover, husband, first-born child.
    Smiles are for youth. For old age come
    Death’s terror and delirium.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, where ignorance prevails, and where any one class is made to feel that society is in an organized conspiracy to oppress, rob, and degrade them, neither persons nor property will be safe.
    Frederick Douglass (c. 1817–1895)

    The one serious conviction that a man should have is that nothing is to be taken too seriously.
