Ben is On Everyone's Mind

Well, Ben's appearance before Judge Brown yesterday could not have been more well-timed, given that there were at least two Bar events later that day for lawyers to congregate and discuss this shocking news. Between the Dade County Bar luncheon and the Federal Bar reception later that evening, many of us had an opportunity to join in common cause in denouncing this misguided prosecution.

Although, given how (charmingly) verbose Judge Brown can be, it's somewhat surprising we made it out of his courtroom at all.
