Well. Thoughts? I guess at last maybe some genuine terrorists have been found, instead of the farcical two they found here.

Clicky
Five defendants received prison terms of between eight and 10 years on Wednesday, while the others received lesser sentences.

Two were acquitted. All but one defendant had been accused of helping Islamist fighters in Chechnya in what prosecutors said underscored the "globalisation of the jihad movement".

Prosecutors could not prove that the attack was to have involved chemicals, but investigators found a protective suit and chemicals including ricin, which is toxic.

    never thought about the burden of proof so you get the people who really do these things, and can charge people who were less responsible with lesser crimes?
