Three days of solid reading and still the judge hasn’t finished delivering her verdict:
"My feeling is that it will take days and days," lawyer Robert Amsterdam told Reuters. "But as soon as the press loses interest it may speed up dramatically and there could be a verdict."
The panel of three judges adjourned until 10:30 a.m. (0630 GMT) Thursday after a third day reading a judgment that detailed the 41-year-old billionaire’s crimes, leaving no doubt about an eventual guilty verdict.
But they did not deliver a formal verdict and sat for under four hours, making only a small dent in the 15 cm (6 inch) high pile of papers which contains their minutely-detailed verdict. [...]
But by the end of Wednesday, the judges had only dealt in their verdict with evidence relating to one of 11 instances of alleged wrongdoing included in their judgment.
Once they have covered all 11, they still have to break the wrongdoing down into specific charges and set the punishment.
Oh dear.
