to impose the death penalty on other counts and therefore they think tsarnaev should get another chance. tsarnaev himself is at a super max prison in colorado and will not be present for the court hearing today. jahar and his brother tamerlan planted bombs in 2013 and killed four people. some of the crimes he is convicted of are being called into question because in june, the supreme court struck down that law. over the definition of a crime of violence saying that the definition was unconstitutionally vague. still on the table as well as this, tsarnaev should get a new trial because jurors could not be impartial. the gunnel denied that request before. as if that's not already a lot to cover, prosecutors will argue their motion ordering tsarnaev to pay restitution to the victims. judge o'tuel is not someone who rushes into or makes decisions immediately. it could be weeks before we know his decision on all of
