In a legal debate being watched nationwide, U.S. Attorney Mary Beth Buchanan will face off today against a company that sells videos with brutal and graphic depictions of sexual violence.
Ms. Buchanan and H. Louis Sirkin, a Cincinnati lawyer who represents California-based Extreme Associates, will argue before a three-judge panel of the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which is hearing cases this week in Pittsburgh. The case represents the first major test of the obscenity laws in 15 years, and the federal government is on the defensive.
