F R I D A Y , J U N E 0 3 , 2 0 0 560 Minutes Sunday -- Military LawyersDenounce Show Trials for Guantanamo BaySuspectsby Michael in New York on 6/03/2005 01:35:00 PMA new report by Ed Bradley airing on "60 Minutes" this Sundayat 7 p.m., reinforces the obvious with new interviews of themilitary lawyers assigned to defend Guantanamo Bay suspects.They're quoted at length that the strictures in place -- keepingevidence hidden from defendants, admitting hearsay andrumour, make a mockery of our legal system and virtuallyimpossible for them to mount a fair defense.And of course, the trial really is a complete joke since even ifsomeone is found innocent, they'll most likely be thrown rightback in their cell -- and if they're found guilty, they'll servetheir time...and still remain locked up.“If [my client] Salim wins, does he get anything?" asks NavyLt.</p><p> Cmdr.</p><p> Charles Swift. "No, he goes back to the same cell, soit seems awfully a lot for show, doesn’t it?"
