In Capt Semrau's case, keep in mind that one of the requests made at the beginning of the proceedings had to do with the selection process. If you read the court record, you will probably see we went through all the steps in those proceedings.
Once again, the problem lies in the fact that it's not possible to know more about the panel members. You have the ability in other courts to determine if the members have an interest of some sort. So although there were five members on the panel, it ended up having just four members for the remainder of the proceedings because one member was absent owing to an illness we were not told about. Otherwise, we probably would have done a lot more to ensure that a replacement could serve as a fifth member. But there was no way for us to know if that person was absent for medial reasons. Therefore, we weren't able to make any inquiries as to whether the person would be able to sit on the panel until the end of the proceeding, which lasted a good three or four months.
That was what I meant about the process. Was it honest? Was there a reason for our not having that ability?
