Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding that the Government’s objective of preventing communication to others who might carry out terrorist acts was a legitimate objective
  • holding that pretrial detention lasting thirty to thirty-three months did not violate due process
  • holding that it was reasonable for the Government to find that the alternative of confinement in the general prison population was “unacceptable” because the Defendant’s dangerousness arose out of the information he might communicate to others
  • applying the Turner standard in a \jail\ setting-that is, to assess a pre-trial detainee's constitutional claim
  • finding no due process violation from defendants’ “extraordinary” thirty-to-thirty- three-month pre-trial detention because of specific alleged crimes and lack of government responsibility for delay
  • finding that a detention period of 30-33 months did not violate due process where the prosecution bore little responsibility for the delay, trial preparation was time-consuming, the case involved complex legal issues, and the charges against the defendant were grave
