a speedy and a public trial

     If a case has been tried in "private" in the United States, according to our constitution it may not have been tried at all. 

probation

     I ought to ask for help from the "wiki" on this one, but here goes--I have been told that many major employers like to hire people who are on probation, because their wages are paid by the bureau of probation, and cost the employer nothing. I have been told that some employers don't like to keep people on after their probation has been served, because the bureau of probation will no longer pay their salaries.  You do the math--yes, I have also been told that getting back on probation is one way to get one's job back.

Suggestion--"A speedy and a public trial" ought to mean just that.
