...Boudin's appearance certainly doesn't overwhelm anybody. He's on the small side, and heavy bags under his eyes make him look tired.

...Chief Attorneys Leonard Boudin and Leonard Weinglass plus the three other trial lawyers begin gathering in their offices located five blocks from the courtroom; legal aides report on points they have spent the night researching. Meanwhile the fund raisers are arriving to call East Coast donors.
