[edit] Comment 1

Well done to AYArktos for the work in improving the article. Capitalistroadster 12:00, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

As the person who started this article, I can only say how impressed I am at the current article. Thanks for saving the article! Andjam 00:16, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Standard of original trial

According to "Little help, no protest for Victorian jailed in Fiji", the original trial and sentence done within 48 hours, and he had no legal representation. Should this be noted in the article? Andjam 00:15, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

• I think it might be useful to note. The Fijian Human Rights people were not impressed at the charges. I think those charges had not been used for many years either. There is of course expansion possible as to how the matter came to light - report of theft, ... However, I think the article would do better to focus on the issues and not the narrative of these particular circumstances. My two cents only.--A Y Arktos\^talk 01:27, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] page move?

Shouldn't this be moved to "McCoskar v. The State" or something like that? It's less about the man than it is about the case. -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 23:57, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
