on trial
The Brenda Martin case is disturbing but perhaps she has something in common with Conrad Black. Even though Black has the resources to fight the U.S. charges against him he still lost the battle (for now). I wonder if being high profile and using the media can be more damaging for a case. Although this Toronto Star editorial demanded that the Canadian government step in to help Brenda Martin perhaps it has made it too difficult for Mexico to be seen to give in to the demands of another government. You might want to check out Tilted: The Trial of Conrad Black for Steve Skurka’s view on what happened at Black’s trial or check out Steve’s blog . To read more about the Brenda Martin case check this out.
Do you think being high profile in the media hinders your chance of a fair trial?
