Court upholds Kaczynski denial of new trial request
A federal appeals court in San Francisco ruled that Unabomber Theodore Kaczynski will not receive a new trial. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, in a 2-1 decision, denied his requests for rehearing before the three-judge panel and the full court. He pleaded guilty in 1998 to a bombing spree that killed three and injured 23, arguing a Sacramento judge erred by allowing a mental condition defense.
