PA DOC MAJ DOB link
Hey, maybe I should get a job writing the headlines for Variety. Anyway, that link, the first in Mumia Abu-Jamal, has gone dead. It's hard to keep up with these DOC guys.

Do you plan to copy what's on your first talk page over here, or are you starting over? --CliffC 04:13, 12 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Never mind, I repaired the link, i was just a typo. --CliffC 04:26, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

Judge Sabo's name is on that list 20 times. --CliffC 04:36, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Em, he couldn't resist (attempting to) "fry niggers" .. much as per the quote infamously attributed to him from as far back as '81. He's dead now, but at least before he died the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania had a window of opportunity to obtain a declaration from him denying that he uttered such a remark. They didn't obtain one to submit to the US District Court in their pleadings. This same judge presided at both the '82 trial and all the PCRA hearings, it seems. With Philadelphia putting so many brothers on the death list, I'm appreciating the irony of how as a noun it means "The City of Brotherly Love".Prisoner Of Conscience 05:07, 12 August 2007 (UTC)


 * I'm reading the appeal brief of July 2006 for Mumia now around numbered page 50. It states that for 14 years Judge Sabo heard only homicides in the same courtroom. In that time he was the judge in 31 cases resulting in the death penalty. It remarks of reversals of his cases on death penalty issues including one 1976 homicide where he applied the 1978 death penalty statute! (erm, did he ever hear of Nullum crimen, nulla poena sine praevia lege poenali or Nulla poena sine lege??) ... One in every six people sentence to die in Pennsylvania was sentenced by Sabo ... no other judge in the country with as many people on death row ... occasions of holding in contempt of court defense attorneys and defence witnesses, even locking them up [Aside: which can be appropriate for serious contempts] ... 26 times imposing sentence of death, 24 of those times against black men ... a longstanding member of the Fraternal Order of Police (and not the Black Journalists Association either, I bet)  Prisoner Of Conscience 05:52, 12 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Also seems that the US Court of Appeal took it upon itself to certify the 'Sabo was biased in PCRA hearings' issue, without the US District Court Judge having done so. Out of the ordinary.Prisoner Of Conscience 07:28, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
