Cry me a river...
Everybody deserves a defense and Tsarnaev's access to his attorneys should be adequate.
Other than that access, the "dreamy" murderous little dipshit is accused of killing and maiming people as a wanna-be Jihadist and he should, therefore, be treated as the terrorist that he presented himself to be. IMO.
Snip:
Lawyers for Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev accused the government of imposing unduly harsh restrictions on their client in a motion filed Wednesday.
Tsarnaev is "in near total isolation," is banned from praying with other inmates and is allowed out of his cell only to meet with lawyers or spend short periods in an outdoor enclosure, court documents said.
Massachusetts U.S. Attorney Carmen Ortiz asked the attorney general for these special administrative measures after Tsarnaev had been in prison for four months.
Ortiz said the restrictions are necessary as part of what prosecutors call Tsarnaev's "continued desire to incite others to engage in violent jihad," according to the August memorandum included in the court filing.
As evidence, prosecutors cite the 1,000 "unsolicited" letters the 19-year-old Chechnya-born American has received during his five-month incarceration. His lawyers say he has not responded to any of them.
His lawyers, Miriam Conrad and Judy Clarke, argue in court papers that the measures create "obstacles" that have a "dramatic chilling effect on the defense team's ability to prepare a thorough and vigorous defense."
In their motion, Conrad and Clarke argue the measures "violate the First, Fifth and Sixth Amendments to the United States Constitution. The court therefore should declare that the SAMs are unlawful and order that they be vacated."
