Remember the Miami 7? Remember the London 25? These were the big cases which were used to justify every unconstitutional thing this group of thugs has ever done.

Last I heard, 15 of the 25 have been released, and as far as the Miami 7, it seems to have fallen into a black hole. I've been Googling for a few weeks now and can find nothing more recent than July.

What has happened to the remaining 10? How is the conspiracy case proceeding in Miami?

There are a few others that have slipped my mind so feel free to add to this list if you can.

Whatever happened to the Brooks Brothers Rioteers

All were members of Tom Delay's staff
All were professionals

None were just regular citizens

They singlehandedly stopped the recount

Yet in 1968, FBI arrested the Chicago 7 for crossing state line to create mischief. Why didn't it happen in 2000?

where are they now, and who are they working for in 2008?

What gets me about the London 25, and the liquid bombers is how the method they were supposed to be using is completely impossible AND YET, we can't carry liquids on airplanes now.

I'll pull up a page tomorrow about this to show what the BBC had to say about it.
