'FIXED TRIAL' -Most Jurors In The Case Have Fossil Fuel Industry Ties... = $$$$$$$

Legal sources have said the case is a DIRTY BUSINESS and classic example of a Slapp a form of civil litigation increasingly deployed by corporations, politicians and wealthy individuals to deliberately wear down and silence critics including journalists, activists and watchdog groups. These cases, even when the entities suing lose, cause significant legal costs for defendants and can have a chilling effect.
The fiveweek trial saw Energy Transfer attempt to tie a host of misdeeds or disruptions caused by the protests to Greenpeace, which has maintained that its involvement was small and at the request of the Standing Rock Tribe.
Standing Rock released a statement after the trial began affirming it had led the protests and claiming the tribe had had ongoing issues with getting safety information from Energy Transfer. The pipeline company was frivolously alleging defamation and seeking money damages, designed to shut down all voice supporting Standing Rock.
The case is an attempt to silence our Tribe about the truth of what happened at Standing Rock, and the threat posed by DAPL to our land, our water and our people. The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe will not be silenced, the tribal chairperson, Janet Alkire, wrote.
Greenpeace sought to move the trial to another venue in North Dakota multiple times, but was shot down by the county court and the North Dakota supreme court.
The judge, James Gion, who was brought in to preside over the case after ALL Morton county judges recused themselves, denied requests for livestreaming, which the state supreme court also denied
