Final Day 9/11 pre trial hearings, Oct. 19, 2012

Today ended a week of pretrial hearings for the military commissions 9/11 trial. The five accused opted to not attend, so I sketched that scene first; empty chairs where the detainees sit and the Commander testifying under question from Mr. Swann  that they did indeed choose to not attend. The rest of the day's sketches were individual sketches of several motions being brought to the table. We head out early in the morning tomorrow, with some opting to stay on for USS Cole/Nashiri hearings next week. No sketches, so I'm homeward bound.
