P.S.
One notation, perhaps made in desperation or with an understanding of the truth:John P. Galligan, a civilian lawyer who continues to provide legal assistance, denounced the proceedings as “almost a ludicrous show trial to secure a death penalty, even though they know it’s unlikely that it would be ever actually implemented.”Galligan said the appeals would probably “go on for decades.”“In all honesty, he stands a far more likely chance of dying from medical reasons than dying because he’s been sentenced to death,” he said.
