Another appeal for Osantowski

Osantowski to seek Supreme Court appeal:

The last time we heard from convicted school shooting plotter Andrew Osantowski his conviction was upheld and he found out that he might receive more prison time according to the Michigan Court of Appeals. Now his attorney is appealing to the Michigan Supreme Court.

The appellate attorney for Andrew Osantowski said that she will ask the state Supreme Court to hear arguments on a half-dozen issues, including the constitutionality of the terrorism statute and his sentencing guideline range.

Marla McCowan, Osantowski’s appellate attorney, said she also asked the Court of Appeals to reconsider its March 2006 decision to allow Osantowski’s statement to be used in the case. McCowan said she is arguing that Osantowski’s Miranda rights were not properly provided. She said a decision on that issue could be made by May.

Osantowski is scheduled for resentencing June 13th but this appeal could delay that.
