The killer wants to be let out from his life-no-parole sentence.

The judge said he's going to stay in jail.

Judge denies then-teen cop killer's request for chance at freedom

MANITOWOC COUNTY, Wis. (WBAY) - UPDATE: A judge denied Jason Halda's motion requesting a new sentence or new trial for murdering Manitowoc Police Officer Dale Tenhaken. Halda will continue serving life in prison without parole.

1. 1st step in a legal process?

Since he was a Juvenile at the time of the murder, I don't know if that opens a wedge in the "cruel & unusual" aspect. Judge #1 doesn't think so.

I doubt the Legal Assistance to Institutionalized Persons plans on this being their last try.
