The last line in the Obama Administration's press release on the indictment of Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab for the attempted murder of 279 passengers and 11 crewmembers aboard Northwest Airlines flight 253 reads:

"The public is reminded that an indictment contains mere allegations and a defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law."

Maybe Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab will ask for a change of venue ... to Yemen, perhaps ... because of all the pre-trial publicity.

Don't forget that Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab is now entitled to a trial by a jury of his peers since Obama decided to try him in a civilian court instead of a military tribunal.
