Look, I’m not a lawyer; but are you a lawyer or a law student?
I’m not going to repeat my comment to you I made before, but you definitely are showing bias towards the Gov.’s side. What makes you think I just read the articles in the media that you so hauntingly claim? Maybe you should read all the legal documents in his defense before you boldy claim that the Gov. is right and his punishment was just? Ya’know many Goyim have come out publically that this is an injustice and they don’t even have a Chiyuv to be Dan s/o L’caf Zecus.
So you can call me an anti-semite but I am not allowed to defend myself. You must be treated l’kaf zechus, but you don’t treat that way. Nice
Let me get this straight, If I support your view then I am intelligent and all, but If I disagree with you then I am biased?
Maybe you should read all the legal documents in his defense before you boldy claim that the Gov. is right and his punishment was just?…
From a former lawyer of Pollard’s:
Lawyers are paid to see things their clients way. Yes, I saw this, and I read this, but if you read the end of my link you will notice something, should you care (which I dont think you do, you want to believe Pollard is innocent, and you dont want to be convinced otherwise.)
Pollard admitted guilt. He did so in open court. He had a lawyer present. When he pled he was told that the court need not accept the plea, even if the prosecution recommended a softer sentence. He accepted, he angered them, they backed out of their oral agreement to recommend a softer sentence (which the court was not obligated to give him).
That is my point. To deny this would be to deny the facts of this case. The case I mentioned earlier was from his 1992 appeal. It starts with the background, his appeal, and the reason for its denial. You don’t need to be a law student to understand it, just someone with basic understanding of English
NJCRAC’s characterization of the facts is revealing. It says that Pollard’s claim of a government breach of the plea bargain is “not entirely a myth”.
I never said it was a myth. You claim the breach should have triggered a trial. I am telling you that you are wrong, and I showed you from his initial guilty plea that he very well knew that the court could accept his plea and ignore any recommendations from the gov’t
For the record, I don’t want him in jail. I believe he is and has been treated unfairly and his lawyers did him no favors. As to why he has never filed a parole request, which he can do, I have no idea. But it bothers me when people who try to defend him/help him don’t know the facts in the case.
But since you just see that there is a yid who disagrees with you, he must be a self hating antisemite who wants yidden to suffer, oh, and he is never dan l’kaf zechus.
