No useful information. What is the alleged offense? Who is the jailing authority?
This sound egregious, but without other information, not useful IMO.
It not only sounds egregious, it is egregious. Stephen Adams was charged for a horrific kidnapping. I don’t see that it matters. He (or anybody, including you or me) could just as easily have been charged with something relatively minor (perhaps erroneously - the old innocent until proven guilty thing) and held for two years without representation or a hearing. The miscarriage of justice stands separate from the charges.
