Do you mean speaking to a lawyer?</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">I definitely can see why the bombing would be considered a national security threat. There does seem to be an undercurrent of information indicating that the two suspects were not acting alone, and that has international implications. The attack was fairly obviously a terrorist attack. So the gravity of the situation might call for some unsual suspension of rights. </span></p> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>.Presumably there is enough evidence that the prosecution would not need any testimony from him.<span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">[/quote]</span></p> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;font-size:small;">So does that mean that he cannont testify as his own defense because the evidence is os overwhelming against him? That seems like pre-judging the trial. </span></p>
