Monday, 31 January 2005
“It’s a sad day when peace protestors go to prison,” said Liz Deligio, 28,a chaplain and student from Chicago, Illinois sentenced to three months in prison, “and the perpetrators of human rights violations will never see the inside of a courthouse — let alone a jail.”

This morning, trials continue. Court commenced at 9 am, with Alice Gerard’s trial continuing from yesterday. Supporters have packed the tiny courtroom, and a number of them were turned away due to lack of space. The SOA Watch website, www.SOAW.org, is being regularly updated. Continue to check throughout the day for the latest in the judicial proceedings.

Leaving the courthouse yesterday, defendant Liz Deligio commented, “Thespirit of hope and the courage of the defendants rose above the punitive verdicts handed down in court.”
