McALESTER, Okla. - Oklahoma City bombing conspirator Terry Nichols was sentenced Monday to life without the possibility of parole for his role in the worst act of domestic terrorism in U.S. history. He issued a statement citing God and asking forgiveness.

District Judge Steven Taylor ordered Nichols to serve the life term on each of 161 counts of first-degree murder and that the sentences run consecutively.

But Taylor called Nichols a terrorist and said the redemption and atonement he seeks is only the beginning.


Nichols received 10 years and a $5,000 fine for a conspiracy count; 35 years and a $25,000 fine for first-degree arson and was ordered to pay $5 million in restitution and $10,000 per count to a victims compensation fund, as well as legal fees.

1. Nichols you and McVeigh AND your brother make me sick

think about what you have done for a LOOOOOOOOOOOOONG time a**hole

[JI7]

9. it would have been better for mcveigh to still be there

wasn't he pretty young when he was sentenced to prison ? imagine the rest of your life , and the vast majority of your life having to spend away in prison . i think that's a lot worse than death penalty. i think the death penalty is many times an easy way out.

12. That one tested my opposition to the death penalty

See what rage will do?

McVeigh and I have farely simliar bios (same position even in the Army) so it was like watching myself be that dark and hateful. See what rage will do?

[bleedingheart]

2. Greatly deserved in his case

[Fovea]

3. I regret that he cannot serve 161 lives

in jail. But I will settle for 161 incarnation's worth of bad karma.

4. Terry Nichols: Republican extraordinaire

Not a nickle's wrth of philosophical difference between him and Newt Gingrich.

Other than that Nichols lived out his anti-govenrmental philosphies while Newt and the rest of the Imperials cannot be as...direct...as I'm sure they'd like to be.

5. This is a perfect time to mention William Krar...and Ashcroft

Yes, from UPI

http://www.upi.com/view.cfm?StoryID=20040311-030156-8181r

WASHINGTON, March 14 (UPI) -- Since his appointment as attorney general, John Ashcroft's Washington office has issued 2,295 news releases. Not one of them has mentioned the name William Joseph Krar.

Krar, who is affiliated with several anti-government, white supremacist militia organizations, was apprehended after mailing a package containing false U.N. credentials, Defense Intelligence Agency IDs, phony birth certificates and a forged federal concealed weapons permit to a co-conspirator in New Jersey.

An alert citizen contacted the FBI, which led to the arrest of Krar and the discovery of a mind-numbing weapons cache: fully automatic machine guns, remote-controlled explosive devices disguised as briefcases, 60 pipe bombs, nearly 500,000 rounds of ammunition and enough pure sodium cyanide "to kill everyone inside a 30,000 square foot building," according to federal authorities.

Even more astounding is the stony silence from the Ashcroft Justice Department, which found at least 2,295 occasions to toot its own horn that are apparently more newsworthy than the Krar arrest.

7. I'm speechless....

Why didn't we hear this stuff on TV? Why is it DU'ers can find this stuff - and it's very important information - but the media whores choose to ignore it? But they'll go on an on about some allegedly terrorist attack that's coming - oh, yeah - it's been coming for 3 years now. Just stay tuned. We'll keep you posted.

11. Yeah I just stumbled onto it myself

I can't remember where-Time article? DU post?

[amazona]

15. it was covered in a recent issue of maxim

...an otherwise worthless publication in my humble view.

[tom_paine]

8. That would be like asking Hitler to mention Nazi atrocities

Not gonna happen.

Totalitarian Nations like Imperial Amerika are all like one another, the only difference is varying degrees.

13. Eric Rudolph

We haven't heard much about the Eric Rudolph trial huh? They really didn't make a big deal out of finally arresting him. We don't get the hourly update on evidence, motions, and counter motions like the Peterson case-to name one.

Not that Ashcroft is a murderer but Rudolph IS Ashcroft's people, Krar too.

[tom_paine]

14. Yes, Rudolph is an Aschroft Person, hence the media silence

And yes, it is VERY likely that Ashcroft is a murderer (or one who orders the murder).

Mel Carnahan ring a bell?

[Bowline]

6. Yeah, but with good behavior he'll be out in three years. n/t

10. If only Bush could get 16,000 life sentences

Rummy, Cheney, Powell, Rice too. And Blair. Lots more.
