Molly Crabapple sketches Gitmo pre-trial of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed sketches by Molly Crabapple
From Vice.com:

Molly Crabapple secured access and traveled down there for an upcoming issue of VICE, and she sent us these sketchbook drawings of yesterday?s pretrial hearings, which were mostly about how the defense can?t properly represent their client because they don?t have access to classified evidence that will be brought against him and that attorney-client privilege is being breached because calls between lawyers and client are recorded.

These are the only visuals of the hearings that exist other than the drawings by the official courtroom sketch artist. There’s more from Molly to come.

Fascinating.

  1. It is a disturbing situation no doubt. I don’t see any new insights expressed in these drawings, and that is disappointing.
