A Teary Eyed Rebekah Brooks And Her Coconspirators In The Phone Hacking Scandal Face First Court Hearing On Bail

Charlie Brooks and wife Rebekah Brooks when they were charged weeks ago

Rebekah Brooks, one of the former top executives at Rupert Murdoch's News International/News Corp, appeared in British court yesterday, seeking bail in connection with the phone hacking scandal, after being charged with "conspiracy to pervert the course of justice." Brooks looked tearful and broken, not her usual glamorous, smirking self. Murdoch has remained strangely silent on the matter, after he got all these people into trouble, via knowingly corrupt and illegal orders. 

The executive and her husband, Charlie Brooks, who is also charged for aiding her in an attempt at disposing evidence, alongside four other News International/News Corp employees, sought and received bails on the strict terms they do not communicate with each other, not even on social networking websites. The judge also admonished them not to be late to court, as the case proceedings could go on in their absence.

Brooks has a small child, who may be sent to live with relatives or placed in government care, in the event she and her husband are sent to prison on obstruction of justice charges. Many entertainers in Britain and other public figures want Brooks jailed, due to the way she taunted and terrorized them, while working at News International/News Corp.  

In other news, the Metropolitan Police has referred the names of several other journalists in the phone hacking scandal, to the prosecutors in the case. This indicates more charges could be looming in the case. Stay tuned...
