And you thought the American legal system took forever...

Remember this yahoo? He was arrested back in the days of Clinton's first administration. He was just now convincted in Japan. The trial took almost 10 years! The news this morning also said that an appeal was coming and expected to take another 10 years!

The Japanese are known for long trials but they do have a 99% conviction rate. ;)

What's interesting about that is this group has the same fanatical devotion as al Qaeda and other terrorist organizations. They tried a WMD before it ever became an issue and failed miserably. A lot of experts use this cult's attempts to kill Japanese citizens and rulers as an example on how hard it is to use biological WMD. Makes me feel a little safer at night. ;)
