- Government
A jury convicted Dzhokhar Tsarnaev of perpetuating the 2013 Boston Marathon bombings and imposed the death sentence. Tsarnaev argued the trial court judge made two legal errors. The first during the jury selection process and the second when it excluded mitigating evidence in the penalty phase. The court of appeals agreed, and it reversed Tsarnaev's death sentence. The United States government then appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, who agreed to hear the case.Legal Docket is made possible in part by Samaritan Ministries, a Biblical and affordable solution to health care, connecting more than 280,000 Christians across the nation who help pay one another’s medical bills.
