I understand your perspective in that from rereading the memo I do now think that despite being a small team the defense can still obtain the expert opinions they seek without the barrier of needing equal funding or access as the prosecution. I wonder if it is because they work for private law firms they are just adjusting to the limited funds available to them. I used to work for a private defense firm and sometimes I have to recall how things require a change in perspective or approach.
In the memo it was stated that Gull did approve of reimbursement for the ballistics and psychologist experts to a certain extent. I falsely misread that she rejected each proposal listed. I wonder if the reason she said no to the forensic pathologists, confessions and fingerprint experts is because she is aware that there are more localized personnel or experts that are available and who will consult with the defense team for me. For example, other than the FBI, would Paul Holes, the GBI, Chicago PD, NYPD or the professors of the forensics and criminology departments near those facilities, like those at John Jay, be willing to offer their input without the extra cost? There are local Vinlanders groups in Kingston, ID. Perhaps there is a journalist or researcher there, like one for the SPLC, who could offer some more insight into both Odinism and the group? It may require adjustment and filling out the correct legal permissive paperwork but IIRC the GBI testifying in case in another tragic murder case in TN because of the consultation they were able to offer so perhaps it is possible and would still be effective in terms of providing counsel.
The Vinlanders Social Club was formed in 2003 by a handful of former members and associates of a rogue racist skinhead group, the Outlaw Hammerskins. Publicly the Vinlanders appeared to be a coalition of independent state skinhead crews, but in reality the group functioned as a single entity.
