This
is probably interesting mainly from a lawyer's point of view. But
who knows, who knows. I do feel sorry for the guy trying to defend
himself and having to live with all night noises and vibrations.
That even sounds a bit like unlawful torture to me no matter what
the guy did or did not do. Anyway, this looks to me like the courts
at work. Cases often require what seems to those involved, not to
mention to onlookers also, an interminable amount of time. In this
case, as in others, it appears there are good reasons for that,
given the foot dragging on the part of at least one of the parties.
One clear example of that, from the article, is the failure of the
government lawyers to respond to the Court concerning the allegation
that the FBI was spying on the defense team's work. That is a huge
huge no-no, you know, called "attorney privilege." That could end
with a permanent mistrial because it could well be a damage that
cannot be fixed any way at all. Attorney-client-privilege (Wikipedia)
is considered necessary for the preservation of any pretense of a
just society.
