Faslane Activist Acquitted
An activist was acquitted today on a charge of Breach of the Peace arising from blockading Faslane in opposition to the deployment of and plans to upgrade Trident. Brian argued that the Crown had a particular obligation in this case to demonstrate the facts given that 950 people have been arrested at Faslane since 1st October, with most held overnight for up to 36 hours and then released with a letter from the Procurator Fiscal stating that no charges would be brought. The Fiscal is prosecuting in only 51 cases of the 950 arrests. Brian said that the overnight detention of more than 500 people without trial constitutes a denial of their civil liberties.

Scottish Judicial Meltdown
In October of 1977 two young women were murdered in Edinburgh. This week their murderer, Angus Sinclair, was cleared of killing them. Evidence that strongly linking him to the murders of four other women wasn't presented in court. This is a clear sign of high-level interference to avoid embarrassing the Scottish judiciary before the Lockerbie retrial.
