What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Chloe Ayling ? Chloe Ayling  who called the ordeal a âterrifying experienceâ during a British television interview in August  recently uploaded a fully nude image to her Instagram account.  Ayling   however  is turned from the camera  and not all of her body is visible in the black and white snap.
 Ayling  says  she  was drugged and held hostage by a group that called  itself  Black Death after being lured to Milan for a fake photo shoot in July.  She  said the kidnappers planned to auction  her  on the dark web to the highest bidder -- unless  she  paid $355 000 for  her  freedom.
George Hepburne Scott  the lawyer for 36-year-old suspect Michal Herba  has argued in court that the case might have been made up as part of an elaborate publicity stunt to boost  Ayling 's career.
The 20-year-old model has maintained  her  kidnapping was real  saying on Britainâs âThis Morningâ in August  she  feared  she  would be killed and prayed for a ânon-painful death.â
 Ayling  described being drugged  stuffed into a suitcase  transported to an isolated farmhouse and held for almost a week by  her  captors. The kidnappers allegedly threatened to advertise  her  as a sex slave or hold  her  for ransom.
 Ayling  has also announced  she  will be writing a book to "expose every little detail for the first time." The book  titled "Six Days " is expected to be released in Spring 2018.

question:
What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Zeltser Zeltser ? In November  Zeltser was placed in a prison hospital after arriving at a penal colony in eastern Belarus  where he was denied medicine  according to lawyers.
On leaving the prison clinic in the eastern town of Mogilyov  ZeltserZeltser said  "I am glad about my freedom."
Zeltser  slightly limping  was met by U.S. officials and entered a car with them to head for the U.S. Embassy in Minsk.
Blaus an its authoritarian leader are on a drive to court better political and economic ties with the West  and Washington had said Zeltser's release would help the process.
U.S. State Department spokesman Ian Kelly told reporters earlier that Washington welcomed news that Zeltser would be released.
He said Zeltser's imprisonment was "a major obstacle in our bilateral relations. We still have other concerns  of course  with some of the actions of the Belarusian government. So we're very happy that this one obstacle has been removed  and we'll review our policy as necessary."
The Russian-born Zeltser is a high-profile lawyer who headed the non-governmental American Russian Law Institute in New York. He once sued the Bank of New York for $2 billion on behalf of investors who had lost their deposits.
Zeltser is a renowned expert on organized crime and money laundering  particularly in former Soviet republics.
His clients have included Pavel Borodin  a former Kremlin aide who was accused of money laundering by a Swiss court  and Badri Patarkatsishvili  the late Georgian billionaire who was a bitter opponent of Georgia's current administration.
Belarusian authorities said that fake documents Zeltser was carrying were tied to Patarkatsishvili's business interests.
Zeltser's brother  Mark  has said that the Zeltser had flown to Minsk to check on the status of several of Patarkatsishvili's assets. Some bsrvrsinBears ugesedtht else'sares ayhae ee arrange by those trying to illegally obtain Patarkatsishvili's considerable assets.

question:
What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Swearingen ? Trotter had been missing since December 8  1998  when she disappeared from the Montgomery County community college where she was a first-year student. Three days later  on unrelated warrants  the police arrested  Larry Swearingen  a 27-year-old unemployed electrician with a young family and a history of run-ins with the law . Police suspected  Swearingen  was Trotterâs killer. He had been seen talking with Trotter two days before her disappearance outside a local store near Lake Conroe  which abuts the national forest. On the day she went missing  he was seen chatting with her in the college library.
After the body was found some three weeks later   Swearingen  was charged with Trotterâs kidnapping  sexual assault  and murder. There was little in the way of hard evidence to back up the charges. In addition to the two times he was seen talking to Trotter prior to her disappearance  the state pointed to a lie he told  claiming he didnât know who Trotter was  and to a letter he wrote while jailed in which he pretended to be someone else and claimed knowledge about the murder that officials said only the killer would know.
In 2000   Swearingen  was tried for the crime and sentenced to death.
Nearly 20 years after the murder   he  maintains  his  innocence  and for more than a decade  he  has been fighting to clear  his  name  in part by repeatedly requesting that key crime scene evidence be subjected to DNA testing. While the stateâs case against  him  was built on circumstantial evidence  there was also a trove of physical evidence that prosecutors seemingly either ignored or dismissed.
The state insisted that the length of hose matched a second piece of hosiery retrieved from the trailer home  Swearingen  shared with  his  wife  Terry. But the hose from the trailer wasnât found until weeks after Trotterâs body was discovered  after police had conducted two exhaustive searches of the Swearingen property. And instead of submitting either piece for DNA testing  the state had a forensic analyst line them up side by side to determine visually whether they came from the same pair of hosiery â the kind of subjective forensic pattern analysis that raises serious concerns about scientific validity and reliability. At  Swearingen âs trial  the analyst testified that the two lengths of hose matched âto the exclusion of all other pantyhose.â
According to court filings  evidence that was tested pointed away from  Swearingen . DNA collected from a cigarette butt found in  Swearingen âs trailer that prosecutors claimed belonged to Trotter excluded her as the donor. And DNA developed from blood found in fingernail scrapings taken from Trotterâs body at autopsy excluded  Swearingen   revealing instead the profile of an unknown male.
To date  Texasâs highest criminal court  the Court of Criminal Appeals  has sided with the state  concluding that the âmountainâ of circumstantial evidence against  Swearingen  outweighs the potentially probative value of DNA evidence. The court has denied his request for testing four times â highlighting a confounding  if not obstructionist  approach to requests made for post-conviction DNA testing under state law.
In  Swearingen âs case and others  the court has construed the right to testing in a way that severely narrows eligibility â an approach that  Swearingen âs lawyers say threatens to make the once powerful law a dead letter  potentially closing access to testing in all cases where there is a claim of wrongful conviction.
 Swearingen  is scheduled for execution on November 16.

When  Swearingen  first sought DNA testing in 2004  the denial was straightforward â the CCA refused to consider the request because  Swearingen âs lawyers had missed a filing deadline.
In its 2010 ruling  the court noted that the statute only allowed testing of evidence âcontaining biological materialâ and concluded that  Swearingen  could not demonstrate that the items  he  wanted to test â the pantyhose  additional fingernail scrapings  and clothing â were actually âprovenâ to contain such material.
âThis court has held that a mere assertion or a general claim that existence of biological material is probable will fail to satisfy the appellantâs burdenâ under the statute  the court wrote. It also faulted  Swearingen  for suggesting that any unknown profile developed from DNA testing should be run against state and federal databases  a provision that didnât appear in the statute.
 Swearingen  filed for testing again in 2013. Newly elected District Judge Kelly Case approved his request  which was accompanied by an affidavit from a DNA analyst who said the evidence would likely contain biological materials.
For example  while the definition of biological material fit for testing included skin cells   Swearingen  still couldnât confirm that skin cells existed on the pantyhose used to strangle Trotter or on the clothes  she  was wearing. And having a DNA analyst say such materials would likely be there was not enough. âWe have explicitly held that appellee must prove biological material exists and not that it is merely probable â the court wrote.
But in order to definitively prove that microscopic evidence exists  you have to test for it  notes Bryce Benjet  a staff attorney with the Innocence Project and one of  the lawyers handling Swearingenâs case . It was a frustrating conclusion  if not an impossible standard to meet.
