If you do, you must have been enjoying the courtroom per formances in the Manson and Chicago cases. They are not top quality burlesque and if they were appearing on a public stage the doors would have been clos ed on them long ago. They are a regrettable travesty on the dignity of our judicial system. They do nothing to engender laymen respect for our courts. If our society to held together by "nuts and bolts," some of "nuts" are getting loose.
