Abstract

Courtroom 3, on the twelfth floor of the Post-Office Building in Boston, is a somber, reflective, room. Everywhere this is a sense of containment, of a sterility come too soon. It permeates throughout, from the bland walls painted a muted yellow to the two tiny lamps on either side of the judge's bench (their light subdued) to, yes, even this, the map of the United States, at the front of the room, with its signal legend -- JUSTICE IS THE GUARANTEE OF LIBERTY. On the whole, courtroom 3 has a sober and tired look about it.
