Hello Steve,
  Would you please send the entire article that you mentioned below. Very
interesting case that I'm hoping our judicial system got right with their
judgement. It's the only system we have and I want to believe in it as bad
as it may seem sometimes.

>It is heartbreaking . . . and a good lesson for "working" small group bands.
