A submarine arrives into Kings Bay US naval submarine
BOTH sides rested their case at the close of proceedings here on Wednesday in the federal criminal trial of seven US peace activists.
As the day began the prosecution called one final witness, then wrapped up its case before the defence team presented theirs.
