Supreme Court of eCanada - Rolo trial -March 12 update

Day 1,208, 13:40 Published in Canada Canada by olivermellors

The Court unanimously convicted Rolo of theft. There is significant difference of opinion amongst the judges about the amount for which he is responsible. The Court will now move to sentencing. The prosecution has provided its views on sentence and we await the defence’s submissions, due this evening at midnight. Extensions of time will be granted for good reason.

The Court commended both councel for an admirable job, presenting their respective cases with vigour and professionalism. Only atoms, whom Rolo has specifically named to head the defence team, appointed and approved of Muglack’s inclusion in the team and his conduct of the defence. Unfortunately, upon learning that the accused was convicted, Muglack seems to have gone off the rails. He has publicly posted that it was he who stole all the money and orgs last September, that he didn’t communicate any of the questions to the accused Rolo and that he invented the entirety of Rolo’s evidence.

Although I have publicly stated that I don’t believe any of this, Muglack’s behavior has earned him a ban from the forum and the irc imposed by the administrators. It is heartily earned. If true, the statements demonstrate dishonesty of the worst kind. If false, the statements demonstrate dishonesty of the second worst kind. The Court will likely review the temp bans and communicate further with the administrators on the subject. As with the vandalism of caf forums, the administrators have a part to play.

The funding act prosecution will come before the Court again on March 19. Congress is debating issues surrounding the prosecution and the Act. The Court has been invited to provide assistance in that discussion. The judges are presently discussing the nature and content of their involvement. We previously indicated that such a debate would be beneficial and we promised to assist if invited. The invitation now having been extended, we will keep our promise.
