Utrecht – The door of the courtroom on the fourth floor of the court swings open around noon, it is intermission. The case against a man from Bunschoten, who is suspected of abusing young children, is well attended. Stakeholders walk out of the room, in the wake of well-known and lesser-known court reporters from all kinds of different media. Among them Nicole van den Hout, court draftsman. “I also report on this case. But with a pencil instead of a pen.”
