"There's an article on Law.com about Dmitry Sklyarov's new Lawyer. Renowned
San Francisco defense attorney John Keker has agreed to represent the
Russian programmer pro bono. Keker is quoted as saying: "I think he is being
unjustly accused and that's the kind of case I like to do." and "[The
Government is] always welcome to dismiss the case, but we didn't come in to
make a plea deal." This gives me the impression he has full intensions of
fighting this to the end. Good."
