Taipei Times, “UN court hears of Sierra Leone’s atrocity `inferno'” (2004)
“‘What took place in Sierra Leone marks the limits of our language to communicate, and falls outside the realm of expression,’ said David Crane, the American chief prosecutor for the UN-backed court, in opening statements.
“‘This is a tale of horror, beyond the gothic into the realm of Dante’s Inferno,’ Crane said.” —Taipei Times (July 7, 2004)
