More tales from a wounded hidden Ireland - Indymedia Ireland

More tales from a wounded hidden Ireland - Indymedia Ireland: Fr. Des Wilson, one of these distinguished campaigners, was at his trial and is lost for words to describe what he saw:?
"Some of us who attended the Green St. court any time during the hearing of his trial will always remember the grip of cold fear we felt at how similar this trial was to what we had read about years ago, the show trials of the dictatorships.....In the past however, news media and church and universities and all kinds of people had condemned what was happening in those countries which they described as under dictatorship or communist rule. Now we were witnessing in our own people’s courts the misuse of a system which we believed was so superior, so basically just, so presided over by people of such integrity that it would always be found better to set the guilty free than to convict even one innocent.?
