...trial, you saw that he was adamant in denying guilt, but not antagonistic. The medical report says that he is in good health, mentally and physically.

The law says you must send this man to prison for a minimum of five years; the maximum sentences add up to 220 years and $280,000 in fines. What sentence will...

Real wages are also increasing fast: last year in France they rose 8%, in Italy 15%, in Germany 6.5%, in Britain 4.2%..
