[QUOTE="inactive, post: 1567583, member: 7488"] It's also worth noting that the SCOTUS ruled that the [I]possibility [/I]of the US following the Vienna Conventions accords in the future (which we do not currently) is irrelevant to the trial that found him guilty. Good on the 5 Justices who said that International treaties should not affect crimes committed and tried and punished under a state's singular law. Shame on the 4 Justices who assert that a [I]possible future[/I] legislative act that simply brings the country in compliance with an international rights treatise somehow might usurp longstanding and constitutional State criminal laws that held this monster responsible for his acts.
