But, unfortunately, most - won't.

Actually, I'd like to see many, MANY of them, in Mr. Marsden's position. Spending a couple of years in jail before trial. Speaking of which, how's that one going? Thought it finally got to court...

In regard to the Marsden's trials. The first trial of 10/9 & 10/10 is to resume on 11/26 with the government's 5th witness to testify. Then the court and attorney's will decide when the Defense will present their case.
The second trial did go the entire week of 10/13-10/17 (this one is from BNM on 4 counts of running two illegal internet companies and illegal deposit taking). Ruling from the judge is expected before the 26th first trial's resumption date. In fact the ruling can come at any time now. Will be interesting to see if a guilty verdict will change the focus of the 26th trial in any way. Both trials are judge only trials.
The defense so far seems to be that it was everyone else's fault for the problems and not them. Might have worked on a jury trial, but fell flat with only a judge hearing the case. They are now being represented by public defenders. The high cost attorney dismissed himself from the case. Guess he doesn't like losing.
