The three suspects rely on their right to remain silent. During the first session, the judge was somewhat critical about this. He said that there are ‘several instructions’ that argue against them, and that nothing can be taken into account in the final judgment. The lawyers of the suspects thought that the judge put them under too much pressure to say something. “We consider every time we are going to give a statement,” said Chesley W.’s lawyer. This suspect is the only one who then said he is innocent.
