Padilla trial begins

The trial of Jose Padilla, previously known as the "dirty bomber" and held in a Charleston, SC navy brig for three and a half years as an "enemy combatant", began in U.S. District Court in Miami yesterday.  Padilla and two co-defendants, Adham Hassoun and Kifah Jayyousi, face charges of participating in a "conspiracy to murder, kidnap and maim".

The sketch shows Assistant U.S. Attorney Brian Frazier making his opening arguments to the jury. Padilla is the forth figure from the right. Hassoun is to the left of Padilla, and Jayyousi -with mustache and goatee- is on the right.
