State Trials in the Maidstone Racketeering Case
The article covers a Maidstone trial with Judges Buller Heath Lawrence and Serjeant Shepherd. It reports an affidavit alleging vast court contempt connected to O Connor and Co. Indictment centers on high treason by Arthur O Connor James O Conley Binns and others. The prosecution outlines their travel from London to Whitstable to Margate and the Whitstable Hope, with letters and treasonous texts seized. The jury is selected from diverse local trades. The defense and Crown debate juror bias and the so called secret committee of England.
