McVeigh death penalty hearing limits evidence
U S District Judge Richard Matsch barred prosecutors from presenting wedding photos a victim’s poem and funeral plans to avoid a lynching atmosphere. He also barred defense attempts to re litigate Waco and restricted testimonies by bombing survivors and relatives. The sentencing hearing begins today with jurors who convicted McVeigh to decide life or death for the April 19 1995 Oklahoma City bombing that killed 168.
