The only appeal that's possible is a mistrial where he will be tried again and found guilty. But we can go that route if that's what it takes. No amount of appeals will set RA free. They should take a break from Franks and fanfic and use these next few months to build a logical defense.
So that lawyers who actually care to put on a proper defense can take over. Some who aren't trying to fire the judge and who have a strong moral compass would be my wish. But yes that would take longer. Maybe. The new team could simply get on with the defense knowing that the bulk of the...
Somehow they manage to find the time to write 26 pages telling JG to step down but can't take time to read through this discovery. I can't wait to read this motion and today's transcripts. Wonder how long it will take before her complaint reaches the Office of Judicial and Attorney Regulation...
Not shocked but angry. We knew this would happen. This is sad for the families and will likely be a plea deal. Now I guess the D will be focused on their client's defense.
His eyes look medicated IMO. I've seen that look when seroquel is involved & I didn't last a week on it. My eyes are big already-- check the profile pic. He could also simply be worn out. No more reddish hair, all gray. Back to a healthy weight.
I understand the judge has it in writing that she "now finds that the State proved by a preponderance of the evidence that defense counsel was sloppy, negligent, and incompetent in their handling of discovery materials. Counsel failed to properly secure evidence and discovery material in this...
I don't understand why the family can't bring a lawsuit for "infliction of emotional distress" or even "negligent infliction of emotional distress". Both of these are recognized in Indiana.
I do wonder if there was a mental evaluation but we would have seen that on mycase. Unless filed under seal. In Ohio they will do the first one or two then the family has to pay out of pocket for another opinion. They take about a month or two for results.
If the behavior was "bad/unruly" but not "psychosis induced" that could be a reason for no visitors. Wonder if he had disciplinary actions. Also wonder if there is an exception to no visitors when it's counsel.
Emotional injuries, pain and suffering. Things along those lines with major payout for the family is my hope.
The defense should have insurance for this and hopefully have already filed a claim. Although, if their insurance company finds them liable then what? Pay out of pocket.
I don't think we will really have the intent until they can break into MW phone. They did have a bit of context with the State's investigation into the leak which was also still fresh when SCOIN was called upon.
Possible.
Or: If it has anything to do with the evidence we gave you against RA... and you can prove him innocent based on exculpatory evidence that fits the rules of evidence... let's go to trial.
Very informative post. I've read it a few times now and will be going back for more. I will be honest the phone stuff is beyond me. It is going to take an expert to make it real simple so I can understand. Someone else had a really good post about the pings and why they wouldn't be related to...
Geesh! Can I get my coffee on first :)! Great job pulling all this and chronological order surely helps! Nice noticing Horan was mentioned by the State as one of the experts the D could work with.. then the request to not let him testify. Is that what you are showing me?
I don't think they should get anything necessarily but IME you do get the discovery packet. I know that there are a couple of letters and calls in my brother in laws case. I don't have them but see them as evidence. Just curious.
