Things I Hearted This Week, 22 Feb 2019 |
Texte |
We have two weeks of news to catch up with because I was travelling last week and wasn’t able to submit to the editor in time.

Court Camera Used to Spy on Juror’s Notebook
Some defense attorneys in San Juan County worry that Sheriff Ron Krebs has a finger on the scales of justice after learning he used a courtroom security camera to surreptitiously zoom in on defense documents and a juror’s notebook during a criminal trial last week.
The incident has drawn outrage from criminal and civil-rights attorneys and frustration from the county prosecutor, and prompted a rare weekend hearing during which a judge dismissed misdemeanor assault and trespass charges against a Lopez Island man after finding the incident amounted to government misconduct that had violated his right to a fair trial.
