    Chicago Case Seven

    Analiz mendoza
    What were your objectives, what do you want to
    prevent?
    They were accused by the US government of conspiracy amid protests against the Vietnam War,
    where 7 men were protesting against US involvement in the Vietnam War.

    The objectives of the United States were to punish them, the judge also had a hatred against the
    accused

    They wanted to prevent them from inciting a riot again, from breaking the law and from
    obstructing the work of the police and from teaching other people how to make homemade
    weapons.
    How did it affect the person or the United States?
    As a result, the 7 men were free, because the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals reversed the
    sentences, due to the judge's impartiality.

    - One of the phrases that was somewhat iconic in that trial was when Bobby Seales
    called the judge a “racist and fascist pig”

    This caused the judge to order Bobby Seales to be gagged.
