Six years after the deadliest peacetime attack in Belgium's history, victims and their families have yet to receive any semblance of closure. In an embarrassing display of passivity, Brussels prioritized the wants of the accused over the needs of the victims. The trial, while an important step, isn't off to a good start.
While there's no argument that victims — and the country as a whole — deserve justice and those responsible must be held accountable, Belgium has a responsibility to ensure a fair trial for the accused. Amid concerns that the glass boxes would inhibit the defendants' abilities to communicate with their lawyers, the court was right to delay the proceedings.
