Jury to begin deliberations in Baker trial
In U.S. District Court Robert G. Baker faces nine counts of larceny tax evasion and fraud after closing arguments. Prosecutor William O. Bittman painted Baker as greedily corrupt, while defense lawyer Edward Bennett Williams called the case a hoax. If convicted, Baker could face up to 48 years and a 47000 dollar fine.
