Marc Corlett

Marc Corlett is a defense lawyer representing pro-democracy media tycoon Jimmy Lai in his national security trial in Hong Kong. Corlett has argued against the prosecution's claims, asserting that there is no evidence that Lai directed or agreed to any conspiratorial actions against Hong Kong and China. He emphasizes the importance of freedom of expression in the context of media and commentary, positioning Lai's statements as legitimate discourse rather than seditious material.
