Muslim “diversity visa” jihadi who killed 8 in NYC tells court ISIS “fighting to impose sharia on earth”
June 23, 2018 / creeping   


The Uzbek man charged in the truck attack last October that killed eight people on a crowded Manhattan bike path was led into a federal courtroom on Friday for what was expected to be a routine pretrial conference.

But the hearing took an unusual turn.

At one point, the defendant, Sayfullo Saipov, asked through his lawyer to address the court. Granted permission, he rose and spoke through a translator.

Why is he even being tried?  NYC is a "sanctuary city," isn't it?  I'm surprised the state didn't tell him "don't worry, you were only practicing your religion so we will let you go free."
