...some awfully goddam good stuff," said Gallu. "There's the hotel suite where the defense lawyers stayed. It became a Kafka room. It was a weird kind of a thing, like you're in some body's mind. I got Belli naked in a steam bath, Belli and Tonahill looking out of the window where the shot was fired, Judge Brown talking during a re cess. Once when the court was not in session, I put the camera in the judge's chair - the camera is the judge...
...Like steam in a pot, a hot controversy is building up between Wall Street and the Securities and Exchange Commission-and the man in the middle is Lyndon Johnson.

...sheriff's deputy is a pointedly jolly individual, known to joke and giggle while in the process of beating a prisoner with his five-pound strap or shoving him into the tiny black steam-heated solitary 'hotbox' cell. The only thing which seems to upset his routine of chuckling brutality is the presence of "Freedom Riders" (He manages to make it sound like an obscenity). He doesn't like...
