A federal appeals court has re-instated a key charge in the government’s terrorism case against Jose Padilla. On Tuesday, the court overturned an earlier ruling Padilla was facing extra punishment for being charged more than once over the same act. The re-instated charge is the only one that could sentence Padilla to life in prison. Padilla was initially accused of being an “enemy combatant,” but he’s now being held on less serious charges.
