Mitchell urges justice for accuser and criticizes sophistry
Attorney General John Mitchell on Wednesday pressed for a courtroom balance that favors both accuser and accused, signaling possible legislation to ensure impartial juries and greater use of wiretaps while denying any reduction in defendants' constitutional rights. He condemned excess proceduralism and posttrial devices, urging a fair system where facts determine guilt. Separately, a 1000 acre range fire near El Paso burned under New Mexico National Guard artillery training, fueled by dry brush and unexploded ordnance at White Sands Missile Range.
