I am less concerned about the crime itself than about the way in which the US judicial system is handling it.

1. Solitary confinement!........WHY?
2. Refusal of bail!.....again, WHY? Take away his passport and where's he going to run to? As for the danger to the public, WTF does that mean? We're talking about a slightly overweight sixty five year old sedentary type with zero record of violent behaviour, not a fucking Japanese Ninja.
3. Not being allowed books of crossword puzzles sent by concerned family to pass the time for the two years it is expected he will serve before trial!.......WHY?    Do they think he's going to make a huge paper airplane and fly away?
4. Austin Texas, it appears, is the closest city with lawyers. A considerable plane journey reduces his access to legal representation.
5. Press releases from prosecutors only, with no single word of his side of the story....WHY?   Are they subjecting him to "Trial by Media" with only half the story so that fair trial is impossible? Looks that way to us!

Is this whole clusterfuck of undue process leading to his quiet disappearance into Guantanamo where he can be kept until he dies, or assisted to that end by an "unavoidable and unfortunate "accident"?"

A US citizen in the same circumstances would be out on the street two hours after arrest, bailed to attend court later.

I say again, American justice?.....AN OXYMORON!
