  Notes

  a Nosair was actually acquitted by the jury on the murder count, a verdict which the judge, Alvin Schleshinger, called “totally against the weight of the evidence; it was irrational … It just made no sense, common or otherwise, to have reached that verdict.” Jihad in America (PBS, final script, November 21, 1994; Executive Producer, Steve Emerson, p. 16). Nosair was found guilty of related charges and sent to prison.
