No New Trial for Arab Activist for Lying about Killing Role
(AP) In Detroit, federal Judge Gershwin Drain last week denied a request for a new trial for Chicago Arab activist Rasmieh Odeh, who was convicted of lying about her role in two terrorist bombing deaths in Israel when she immigrated to the U.S. Drain said evidence showed the Palestinian native illegally obtained U.S. citizenship by failing to disclose her conviction for the fatal 1969 bombings in Jerusalem and that her argument for a new trial lacked legal merit.
