Ned trial at the sept of bealor

Also interesting is the question why Ned didn't get a full trial, while even Tyrion got one.

Cersei wanted to prove Tyrion guilty. She had the witnesses, evidence, and motivation to put together a strong case, considering Tyrion's innocence. That wasn't the case with Ned. He was essentially taking a deal offered by Cersei; no trial was necessary after he confessed.

He confessed, so no trial is necessary

exactly.

given the situation he did the most sensible thing

nobody could have foreseen Jeoffrey acting as he did.

And even if Ned knew he was doomed,he would have acted the same IMHO, given the fact that Sansa was "prisoner" of Jeofftey...

Hark! Poor Ned Stark!

Greatest shock ever!

I think Ned made a sensible decision. Ned never cared to much about dynastic politics, but he did care about his daughters. He thought he could save them by confessing, so he made the logical choice.

The Ned did not go to trial. He accepted a plea bargain whereby he would tak the black rather than be executed. Of course, the prosecutor coerced him into by threatening the life of his daughter.
