And, you know, like I said, I'm not looking forward to a trial.

In some ways I'm still recovering from the trial. My health is not as good as it ought to be. I've gone back to practicing law and it seems to have taken a toll for whatever reason.

I have contact with no one involved in the trial.

Tell the trial lawyers to get out of your state and to quit costing businessmen and women.

I'm an old trial lawyer.

People have said I can come off a little trial-lawyerish. I tell people I never actually became a lawyer, but I play one at City Hall.

Were I ever alone in the dock, I would not want to be arraigned before our flawed tribunals, knowing my freedom could be forfeit as a result of political pressures. I would prefer a fair trial, under the shadow of the noose.

Any good trial lawyer knows that if you've got one credible expert or scientific study, then you can let the jury decide.
