宾夕法尼亚州法院宣布因越狱而被判有罪的杀人犯的上诉无效, Pennsylvania court invalidates convicted murderer's appeal due to jail escape, adding 15-30 years.
一个宾夕法尼亚州法院裁定,Danilo Cavalcante因谋杀其前女友而被定罪,因去年越狱而丧失了对其无期徒刑提出上诉的权利。 A Pennsylvania court has ruled that Danilo Cavalcante, convicted of murdering his ex-girlfriend, forfeited his right to appeal his life sentence due to his escape from jail last year. Cavalcante的律师在他是逃犯时提出了一项动议,但法院认为,根据州法律,该动议无效。 Cavalcante's attorneys filed a motion while he was a fugitive, but the court deemed it invalid under state law. 他随后提出的上诉被推迟了8天。 His subsequent appeal was filed eight days late. 8月,他认罪越狱,并被判处15至30年的无期徒刑,不得假释。 In August, he pleaded guilty to escape and received an additional 15 to 30 years on top of his life sentence without parole.
