Hated Nation: Federal courtroom becomes healing balm
2008-02-10 15:10:00 by Brenda Norrell The dialogue in a federal courtroom evolved into a healing balm, revealing a nation, the United States, that the world has grown weary of, and a growing number of aging Americans willing to serve time in prison to expose the cancer within. Torture was again on trial in federal court in Tucson on Feb 4. But in dialogue that surprised those that packed the courtroom, the healing remedy of grace and understanding were combined with wisdom and the spiritual foundation for a better world. Two of the protesters of US torture arrived in court suffering from cold and sleep deprivation. Betsy Lamb and Franciscan Fr. Jerry Zawada, in prison awaiting trial, had spent the night in cold, bare holding cells. Those holding cells are where all inmates from Florence prisons wait all night before a court appearance. Dressed in thin prison clothes in a cell without a bed, there is only a cold, stone floor to lie on. Mary Burton Riseley, in a wheelchair and sick with the flu, appe...

Courts and Courtroom Interpreters
2007-10-11 21:56:00 I had to show up for jury duty again today. I was in the pool of potential jurors; not actually selected to serve on the jury. The judge and lawyers agreed on twelve people before my name was called, so I have been excused. That means that I can now freely talk about everything I saw in the courtroom.It was a criminal trial. The defendant was a Vietnamese man in, perhaps, his 40s. He was a small and thin man, missing some teeth. He appeared to be poor. The suit jacket he wore was faded and ill-fitting. He wore headphones into which a certified interpreter said in Vietnamese all that was being said in the courtroom.The courtroom interpreters are certified persons. They generally have met high standards to gain certification. I don’t doubt that they do a good job.However, mistakes can be made. Just as people using only English, for example, may repeat something someone else has said and make a mistake in doing so.So it was very interesting to me that the rules applied in court with ...
