Craig Murray writes:
I am very concerned about the obvious collusion of the prosecution and the judge to close this case down.
The extraordinary conflation of “time management” and excluding evidence which the US Government does not want heard in public is plainly illegitimate.
The continual chivvying and interruption of defence counsel in examination when prosecution counsel are allowed endless repetition amounting to harassment and bullying is illegitimate.
Some extraordinarily long prosecution cross-examinations, such as that of Carey Shenkman the lawyer, have every appearance of deliberate time wasting and distraction.
Tuesday’s witness is Professor Michael Kopelman, the eminent psychiatrist, and the prosecution have indicated they wish to cross-examine him for an extraordinary four hours, which [Judge] Baraitser agreed against defence objections.
Her obsession with time management is distinctly subjective.
Do read the whole thing.
