Whether it is "Soludo" abi "Soluble", All I know is "believe Nigerian politicians at your own peril !" No one of them is to be trusted. The same way FFK appeared to be a saint at first but ended up in the coven of those he wrestled against with

In as much as she went too far,I wouldn't blame her. People are different. It was just quite unfortunate that she was among those who couldn't win the battle

I dey pity these fowls
Anyway, this is a good development. Other governors should create avenues through which our youths can be gainfully employed

Politics, indeed, is a dirty game

Waoh!
Quite impressive! We are getting there

Sowore is also as dangerous as the both of them

1stGenAmerican:
I appreciate the concise explanation behind your intentions and I will give you my honest and professional opinion. I warn you, it is a long but thorough read.

I remember someone asking (I think it was you) what the jury used to convict. To answer that question, they used a combination of elements, one being the defendants own “slip ups”. Others may differ however I feel that his best shot is to appeal the length of the sentence and not the guilty verdict. My reason? Because a combination of elements came together for a conviction, his attorney would have to fight each one of those elements and from the evidence that is present in the case file, a win on that angle is nearly impossible.

He should speak one on one to the attorney currently working on his appeal or if he chooses, a new one he retains. He needs to tell that attorney everything regarding this crime and subsequent case, even the things that only he and God know and by law, his attorney cannot break confidentiality. From the brutal truth, the attorney can build a case to appeal the sentence using factors derived from his/her dealings with the defendant, any progress or education that the defendant has gained (btw, in the US, prison inmates can get a college degree or certification free of charge), how and why he is remorseful, and how he plans to serve his shortened sentence and go on to lead a productive and non-violent life upon his release. The rest of the components of the argument (precedence, etc.) will be completed by the attorney.

Lastly, I shall tell you that not all defendants make good witnesses nor do all do well in open court. In the US, prosecution teams, jury members, etc. can be taught to study body language, voice inflection, and other visible signs of deception. You witnessed how easy it was for me to get the defendant to speak in his own hand so imagine how a prosecution attorney with 3 to 4 times my experience would bend him to and fro. With all due respect, it is really hard to out slick a prosecutor with a record of convictions that is greater than 80%. Add in the knowledge of the rest of the prosecution team and it’s basically a locomotive that a cardboard wall is trying to hold back.

Again, which route his attorney takes the appeal needs to be completed by the attorney with only the requested input from the defendant. I forgot to mention that the type of evidence (documents, etc.) presented on this forum by the defendant are easily challenged and dispelled and are not truly admissible in court, especially since most are pieces that he constructed on his own. The types of “evidence” that he presented will indeed hurt him much more than help him. Factual evidence that cannot be tampered with or manipulated (example: data on a phones location derived directly from the cellular tower) is what is admissible.

The defendant consistently gave me the impression that he knew more about the US Justice system than everyone else, even those handling his trial. Strictly my opinion- Some of the many motions filed on his behalf were basically wild goose chases that wasted the court’s time and money; some of the points he insisted on arguing were moot from the get-go.

Truth be told, the defendant should either delete everything that he has posted on this forum regarding his case or beg the Mods to close and delete the two threads. If the US Prison System caught men like John Gotti, Sammy the Bull, et. al relaying messages and making plans from inside a prison then surely it will be no problem for them to catch the Defendant. Many have tried some of the things that he is determined to try and they have failed. He should keep in mind that if he loses this appeal, there are no more buttons of Gabriel’s coat.

In a nutshell, the defendant will have to work with God on humbling himself and working with his attorney for the best case scenario, not a nearly impossible outcome. Drop the arrogance, the defensiveness, and ACT AS THOUGH he wants mercy because simply asking for it will not cut it.

IF the Defendant had the money for a high powered defense attorney, that attorney can take the appeal several different ways however that will take money, real money. This would be a great time for the defendant to liquidate those six SUVs that he states he bought with cash AND get more cash from his original source for his trip to the US. I know of a very assertive defense attorney with a reputation of winning however his retainer alone would probably be impossible for the defendant to raise. The defendant should probably stick with his current attorney since it seems like his only option.

And that is my opinion.

A thorough and succinct read indeed!
I must confess that the U.S.A Criminal Administrative System is way harder than that of Nigeria's

1stGenAmerican:
I want to answer that but I wanted to ask if you were aware of the Convicted Man’s other thread?

Well in that thread, he says that he already has a lawyer ACTIVELY working on his appeal. How can a lawyer win a case if the client is on the web posting easily identifiable information that can cause her to lose and hurt her professional record/reputation?

You have said it all. I saw it too in one of the previous pages that the appeal was being worked on. He should gather these evidence of his and work with his lawyer other than coming online to incite sentiments and empathy

chatinent:
No, I don't see you as evil. I have reproved people trying to paint you as such. I think you base your arguments on the fact you have.

Let's forget everything anyone said to you. I apologize for that. Let also refocus on steps to help if it is plausible to you. Please understand I am not being paid to do anything here. I want to help. Is there a turnaround in this case? Can you help?

Exactly,is there any way we can salvage the situation?

Ola17:
Chief, you are a good person(this is not a compliment).

If you will permit me to chip in some words, I’d say that we have an unrepentant and a manipulative son of a bîtch in our hands who thinks he’s smart. This guy should’ve come clean when he was caught, come on, if he committed such heinous crime under the influence, best is to come clean and show REMORSE, the system knows how to treat such people and give them a second shot at life.

A reasonable fellow knows to stop digging when he’s in a hole. This guy even after messing up, instead of him to mellow down inside for some years then file appeal for reduced sentence using good behavior and remorse, he’s here trying to be clever by half! Smh. Oga those people smart pass you o. Mr Bah you may end up being sentenced to death if you approach appeal with this format. Mr Bah what do you stand to gain by raping someone’s child?

1stGenAmerican my sincere apologies ma.

I am fully awake like a bat following this thread back to back

Ola17:
Concerning the DNA result, a DNA result is declared inconclusive when the probability of the match is less than 99%. So in a nutshell, DNA evidence alone might not have tied him to the crime but other evidences like plate number tag, fingerprints lifted from the door keypad, cell tower triangulation might have.

It’s quite frustrating that Mr Bah isn’t presenting the whole facts but snippets.

Exactly!
He should just come out clean and tell us everything he knows. And not to be releasing evidence bit by bit

Egungun don finally enter express

We should just stop with the attacks and the OP should come out clean too. He should not withhold anything
We all are trying to get him out. If he truly committed the offence,he should do the jail time and if he is innocent,he should not give up

I have been following this thread keenly and all I can say is that, Justice will not be done if an innocent man is convicted of an offence he knows nothing of.

chatinent:
I don't follow the books. I follow the reality. I would give a case but it isn't important. Facts are based on theories. Evidences build up facts. I can prove fact to what is has been when it becomes what it is at present.

What happens when the family of the ingredients of facts isn't all right or all wrong but is absorbed one-sided?

The thing is, in law, facts are not based on theories. You got the second one right_ Evidence builds up facts of a case and strengthens it

1stGenAmerican:
I shall correct you on one important thing: with regards to law, FACTS ARE FACTS.

Yeah,that is correct

Nice one!
