You don't tell us what, if any, error message(s) you receive. Is it
something about "defect" not having a "Description" attribute? As far
as I can see, you have given the compiler no clue that the type of the
'List' element is anything other than 'Object'.
By universal Java convention, variables and attributes should be named
with an initial lower-case letter.
JSP trainers and book writers like Marty Hall strongly recommend
against scriptlet in JSPs.
Oracle uses VARCHAR2 as a data type, not VARCHAR. Since VARCHAR is
not a Java type, there is no way that your ArrayList elements have
that as an attribute type.
Any of these things could contribute to whatever problem you might be
having, but since you haven't told us what problem you're having or
even if you actually are having a problem, I cannot be sure.
