Sounds about right. If you're not guilty you're not going to want a plea deal, it's the very last resort. The dude already had 10 years of his life wasted behind bars because of that psycho bitch.

Respectfully disagree. No lawyer is going to bail just because the client doesn't want to take a plea deal. Defense lawyers don't care whether clients plea or not. If the client doesn't want to consider a deal you gear up and try the case, who cares. You do what the client wants.
Highly more likely that Waseem thought he knew everything and could convey himself better without a lawyer getting in the way (a pretty common theme among the worst sociopathic murderers I should add)

In my experience, representing yourself in court is a sign of mental illness.

Well, there's something that wasn't shared in the news before... they found handcuffs, leg irons, and rope in the trunk of his car?
The books don't surprise me though, since he collected every book he could lay his hands on. Ninja Mind Control.

I was reading through the thread earlier, trying to piece things together from various posts, articles, trial testimony, etc. Not sure if you guys have seen this but I feel it could very well turn out to be a key piece of evidence that many have overlooked for years:

Interesting, I have uBlock on Chrome and it is still letting it block it.
This worked though, thanks.

The fact that someone can act as his/her own attorney in a capital trial is a good reason to get rid of capital punishment.

The fact that the financial burden for taxpayers of the death penalty is far greater than that of life in prison (endless appeals requiring attorneys to represent the state vs a couple meals a day) is reason to end the death penalty, regardless of moral implications.

The death penalty should be abolished because nobody in society fucks up more than the government, and when it's a life and death situation there's no fixing a fuck up.
