Alleged Aryan Brotherhood Leader Lawyer: Ignore 'Parade of Perjurers'

Wednesday, July 12, 2006

SANTA ANA, California — A defense attorney urged jurors Wednesday to reject the accusations of a "parade of perjurers" who were promised money and reduced prison sentences for testimony against four alleged ringleaders of the Aryan Brotherhood prison gang.

"The government is asking you to place your trust in these thieves and liars to get a conviction," lawyer Mark Fleming said during his closing argument in the federal racketeering trial.

"They aren't worthy of your belief. It's insulting," he said.

Fleming represents Barry "The Baron" Mills. Also on trial are Tyler "The Hulk" Bingham, Edgar "The Snail" Hevle and Christopher Overton Gibson.

The inmates are implicated in many of the 32 murders and attempted murders detailed in a federal indictment against the white supremacist gang that was founded in 1964 at California's San Quentin prison.

The trial is part of what is believed to be one of the largest death penalty cases in U.S. history. Of the 40 people originally arrested, up to 16, including Mills and Bingham, could face the death penalty.........http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,203205,00.html

There's a missing link somewhere in my thinking, because for the life of me, I can't see why anyone should care about animals behind bars killing one another.

All I see is that it rduces prison population and eases the tension on the taxpayers slightly.

Our cityies are full of gangs and they kill one another. Prisons are full of gangs, and they kill one another.

The problem with the ones in the cities is that when they kill, innocent bystanders sometimes end up dead as well.

In prisions when they kill, you can be pretty certain that no one got killed who didn't deserve it.
