It just keeps getting worse! Have you ever heard a story, the longer it goes, the more involved in intrigue and dirty dealings it gets???? This one is it. February 10, 2005 Trials for Saddam cronies to begin soon First the little fish, then the shark Televised trials for some of Saddam Hussein's key henchmen are set to begin in several weeks before an Iraqi tribunal, which could hand down sentences of death by hanging or firing squad, a Western legal expert familiar with the process said Wednesday. Investigative judges are close to delivering lengthy dossiers of affidavits, witness statements and other documents to a five-judge chamber that will run the trials, the legal expert told reporters in Baghdad on condition of anonymity. He wouldn't say which of Saddam's 11 lieutenants are likely to face the Iraqi Special Tribunal first. Western and Iraqi officials have said they do not expect Saddam to be among the first to stand trial, at least partly because prosecutors may want to build a chain of responsibility from the bottom and hope some of the defendants cut deals to testify against the former Iraqi leader.
