The World

TAKEOUT: Chicago Public Radio’s Rob Wildeboer reports on the difficulty that a Chicago federal court is having as it determines how to prosecute Tahawwur Rana, who was accused of involvement in the 2008 terror attacks in Mumbai. Prosecutors have a considerable amount of information that they say will help tie Rana to the crime – but the evidence is classified.

Listeners from around the country called in and posted on the web with your takes on that question. While all of the advice is good, some of our listener’s innovations will surprise you.
