OKC bombing aide Nichols appeals life sentence to Supreme Court
Oklahoma City bombing co conspirator Terry Nichols has asked the Supreme Court to overturn his life term, arguing the federal judge misapplied first degree murder guidelines. He contests trial evidence and notes an FBI agent testimony issue. Fortier’s related appellate action led to a 12 year sentence being tossed, but Nichols’ case distinguishes malice and premeditation factors. Nichols, 44, challenges conspiracy to use a weapon of mass destruction and the jury’s belief in his knowledge of Timothy McVeigh’s plan.
