Abdulmutalab To Know His Fate In October

Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, 24, is charged with trying to detonate the device on a Northwest Airlines flight as it approached Detroit from Amsterdam, a scare that prompted U.S. authorities to quickly ramp up aviation security.

"This incident for which Mr. Abdulmutallab was charged occurred almost two years ago," U.S. District Judge Nancy Edmunds said in declining to change the October 4 start date of the trial.

Also on Thursday, Abdulmutallab reiterated his desire to represent himself, indicating he might speak for himself in the trial's opening and closing statements. Opening remarks are set for October 11.

Abdulmutallab previously told U.S. investigators he had received the bomb, which failed to detonate fully, and training from al Qaeda militants in Yemen, U.S. officials have said.

The case is USA v Abdulmutallab, 2:10-cr-20005, U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan.

He should be sentenced immediately. He is guilty of the crime and that's all.
How can a young man with a bright future decide to detonate a bomb on US Soil, sacrificing his life together
