“Right to [um . . . expletive deleted] jail!” That’s what defense lawyer Arthur Kirkland (Al Pacino) famously said of the loathsome Judge Fleming (John Forsythe), whom he was representing in . . . And Justice for All (1979). And it’s also Luther’s justifiable sentiment regarding the three U.S. soldiers (two active duty) allegedly caught spying for China. I have to say I emphatically agree — as, more importantly, does the Justice Department, which has indicted Sergeant Jian Zhao in Tacoma, and First Lieutenant Li Tian and former soldier Ruoyu Duan in Portland, as David reported.
For reasons unclear to me, the DOJ has posted only the Zhao indictment in Washington; the Portland indictment of the other two men is summarized in a press release issued by the U.S. attorney’s office in Oregon, but the actual charging instrument is not posted.
