It was Brooks Brothers meets Old Navy Monday in Courtroom 1526 in Manhattan's Criminal Courts building.
Anthony Marshall, the poor-little-rich-boy son of Brooke Astor wore a gray suit, light blue shirt, tasseled loafers and his U.S. Marines tie for the first day of his trial on charges of looting his late mother's $200 million estate. His wife, Charlene, wore an understated outfit accented with Belgian slippers and a jacquard scarf and pearl earrings.
They were in stark contrast to the 100 prospective jurors paraded into Supreme Court Justice Kirke Bartley's courtroom wearing jeans and Kangol caps, hoodies and sneakers the size of bread loaves. |
