In today's Wall Street Journal the lawyers for Chen Guangcheng give their side of the story: Chen's trial took only two hours. Other than Chen's brothers, the public was not allowed. His lawyers, appointed by the government, had never met him nor read the file. Their defense consisted in agreeing with the prosecution.
They will appeal on the assumption that "the legal system can...deliver a fair verdict and remedy wrongs".
