Denied: the right to a fair trial.

08-2294 U.S. v. Olofson

The 7th Circuit has upheld Olofson’s conviction. So the court can bar your witnesses from the courtroom and the Prosecution can refuse to provide evidence to the defense. This means the FEDS can stack the deck during a trial anyway they please. Please tell me Olofson’s going to push on to the Supreme Court.
