DOJ Seeks Death Penalty on Saipov for West Side Attack, Now Stay Request on Eve of Trial

By Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Maxwell book
BBC - Honduras - CIA Trial book - NY Mag

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Oct 10 – Sayfullo Saipov has been facing a trial that may result in the death penalty for killing eight people with a van along the West Side Highway.

  On May 4 U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Vernon S. Broderick held a conference on the case and Inner City Press live tweet it here and below.

  On Columbus Day, October 10, 2022 - the day before jury selection - Saipov's Federal Defenders filed a motion to stay the proceedings, based on racial disparities in the jury pool, including the exclusion of "inactive" voters. Will Judge Broderick grant it? Watch this site.

On September 16, this from the prosecutors: "Re: United States v. Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov, S1 17 Cr. 722 (VSB) Dear Judge Broderick: The Court has previously requested updates on the status of the defendant’s request to the Attorney General to withdraw the Notice of Intent to Seek the Death Penalty in this case. (Dkt. No. 80). We were notified today that the Attorney General has decided to continue to seek the death penalty. We conveyed this decision to defense counsel and the victims." Letter on Inner City Press' DocumentCloud here.

This comes days before the UN General Assembly week, on a day US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield said the Biden administration is all about promoting UN principles. But those include no death penalty. And USUN has done nothing to stop the UN from banning Press. We'll have more on this.
