this man has the very interest for his people. he doesn't fit monstrous beast that has been propagated about him you can tell he is not some dictator. see how forthright he details his mission and that was to liberate his Liberia from the European exploitation. No doubt there was atrocities in the worst forms. I dont think it was his intent but there may have been people of lower rankings carrying out without his knowledge. the only problem I have with him is the child soldiers and that maybe the reason that thing got so out of hand. but I fill that he stayed wit his purpose.

This Tailor guy spent most of his testimony incriminating himself, tell the judge that he killed people in the name of liberation & so forth, this something not justifiable by any means or standards. Tailor deserved lengthy sentence in jail.

Yes. It was Captain Kojo Tsikaka, Van Tskata and Co. They were called: The Jelicofene Mafia. They became the so called killers during Jerry Rawlings government.
