    About time.

    The trial is expected to take several years.

    Holy shit…that’s longer than a Trump trial. Anyone know why it should take so long?

      Legal paperwork is no joke. Furthermore judges and their staff tend to have a lot to do already, and giving more timely justice to this scumbag just because he’s famous on the Internet is probably not a priority.

      The right to a speedy trial is rare in Europe. Maximum pretrial detention in Romania is 5 years. But compare that to 4 years in Spain and 3 France.
