Eight-two people defy Crown Court judge in protest for fair trials
MORE than 80 people held signs saying “juries deserve to hear the whole truth” outside Southwark Crown Court today in defiance of a judge who had arrested 11 for holding the same placards last week.
Last Tuesday, activists from Defend Our Juries staged a silent protest while a trial took place involving Just Stop Oil activists, who had been banned from talking about the impact of climate breakdown to jurors.
The protesters were arrested on suspicion of contempt of court following instructions from Judge Hehir.
