Prosecution rests in Conrad Black trial

In a story that's getting a lot of attention everywhere in the world--except in Chicagowhere the trial is taking place--the prosecution this afternoon has rested their case in the Conrad Black racketeering trial.

One count, a money laundering charge, has been dropped by the prosecution.

As I noted in an earlier post, Dominick Dunne and Mark Steyn are among the big-name writers in Chicago covering the trial of the former head of the Hollinger media empire. Newspapers that were part of the chain included the Jerusalem Post, Canada's National Post, the London Daily Telegraph, the Chicago Sun-Times, and the Morton Grove Champion.
