Brett Kimberlin’s has been trying to have some of his Speedway Bombing convictions overturned. His efforts failed in the District Court, and he’s appealed to the Seventh Circuit. His appeal brief in the case was due yesterday, and he managed to get it filed on time.
It appears to be chocked full of misrepresentations of what happened in his original trials and the evidence in the trial records. One that jumped out at me was his incomplete recounting of the evidence relating to his conviction for being a felon in possession of explosives (beginning on page 9). His brief implies that the use of explosives by a third party for an excavation job on Kimberlin’s rural property years before the Speedway Bombings provided the grounds for his conviction. However, residue of Tovex explosive was found in the Chevrolet Kimberlin was driving when he was arrested and was also found in his Mercedes.
The felony conviction which made Kimberlin ineligible to possess explosives was for perjury. It seems he still tells lies.
Lying liars gotta lie.
Does the appellate court pick up on these things by itself?
