Charlie Brooks and wife Rebekah Brooks when they were
charged weeks ago
Rebekah Brooks, one of the former top executives at Rupert
Murdoch's News International/News Corp, appeared in British court
yesterday, seeking bail in connection with the phone hacking scandal, after
being charged with "conspiracy to pervert the course of justice."
Brooks looked tearful and broken, not her usual glamorous, smirking self.
Murdoch has remained strangely silent on the matter, after he got all these
people into trouble, via knowingly corrupt and illegal orders.
The executive and her husband, Charlie Brooks, who is also
charged for aiding her in an attempt at disposing evidence, alongside four
other News International/News Corp employees, sought and received bails on
the strict terms they do not communicate with each other, not even on
social networking websites. The judge also admonished them not to be late
to court, as the case proceedings could go on in their absence.
Brooks has a small child, who may be sent to live with
relatives or placed in government care, in the event she and her husband
are sent to prison on obstruction of justice charges. Many entertainers in
Britain and other public figures want Brooks jailed, due to the way she
taunted and terrorized them, while working at News International/News
Corp.
In other news, the Metropolitan Police has referred the
names of several other journalists in the phone hacking scandal, to the
prosecutors in the case. This indicates more charges could be looming in
the case. Stay tuned...
