Death for him, he says, is a martyr's suicide -- Carol.</s>COSTELLO: What is the mood there after this verdict was handed down, because we know yesterday in Jakarta there was a big bombing? What's the mood there like today?</s>RESSA: Well, the verdict comes at an extremely insecure time in Indonesia.

They are warning of possible future attacks from the Jamia Islamia -- this is al Qaeda's arm in Southeast Asia -- in retaliation for the verdict today -- back to you, Carol.</s>COSTELLO: Maria Ressa live from Bali this morning.
