1) Do we have confirmation from a reliable source that the poly eventook place? I ask because if the attorney and he have parted ways it could be because Tommy backed out altogether and made the attorney look like an idiot (had it all set up at Tommy's request and then bailed at the 11th hour).
2) If Tommy took it and failed, the attorney, while still remaining his counsel on the existing criminal charges, may have stepped aside because a capital murder case is the biggest deal in criminal law. Just because an attorney feels compentent to represent someone in a lessor felony matter does not mean he feels ready to take on a case such as Haleigh's.
3) I do not believe Tommy took the poly and passed. While some have pointed out that would be reason for the attorney to step aside on the Haleigh matter, it would not make any sense to do so UNTIL having shouted that passed poly from the rooftops, thereby removing suspicion from his client. In other words, why quit because you aren't necessary without first letting the world know "hey, I'm not necessary here"?
It will be interesting to see what sort of confirmation comes in about the info. So far, the article (all due respect AH) seems long on speculation and short on fact.
