The prosecution described Kelley as "remorseless," saying in his sentencing memorandum: "Edward Kelley is remorseless and has shown neither a capacity nor desire to rehabilitate. On the contrary, Kelley not only believes the actions for which he was convicted were justified but that his duty as a self-styled "patriot" compelled him to target East Tennessee law enforcement for assassination."
