I think the vast majority of people who are involved are responsible.
Are you saying that a defence lawyer would ask for it to be designated as a mega-trial? I think that might expedite the process, but again it's a decision that would be considered.
I think it's in everyone's interest to have an expedited and fair trial--and all these measures. So I don't think somebody would use this to slow it down. It seems to me the exact opposite, and they might want to have the trial moved forward.
