  • Summary

  • Back in the Jacksonville courthouse, it was a time for the arraignment. We were brought before a judge, the charges against us officially read and asked how we pled. Carlos and I both pled "NOT GUILTY" and the trial date was set. By this time, we both had attorneys. Mine was a young lawyer from Jacksonville, appointed by the court, who turned out to be quite adept at the law. Carlos, having substantial financial resources, hired two very well known trial attorneys from South Florida. They proceeded to rent an apartment in town and flew home on weekends. Preparing for a trial of this magnitude was a long drawn out process, taking several months of pretrial hearings and developing a plan for our defense. It was a gala event the day the trial commenced. The courtroom was packed - priority seating going first to security, then friends of the court, media artists, and finally, what few seats were left went to spectators. If it had been a play on Broadway, it would have been a huge success. Standing Room Only! What followed became the longest running drug trial in United States History. ~ Jack Carlton Reed Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
