Thought that AL should be brought to the front due to recently filed motions.
AL is "THE" attorney for the DP Case against KC. She is the one that decides what motions to file. She is the one that signs off on the motions that are filed.

"In 1998, she was awarded the Justice for All Award at the National Conference on Wrongful Convictions and the Death Penalty"
IMO This article speaks to and about AL not JB.

Legal Analyst Bill Sheaffer on Casey Anthony Case
Does Casey’s Defense Have No Sense Of Decency?
(snipped from article bolded by me)
"What a motion in limine is NOT is a request to INCLUDE certain matters at trial, which is exactly what the defense has done here. Now, either these lawyers don’t know proper pleading mechanics, the Florida Rules of Evidence, the Florida Rules of Criminal Procedure, do not possess a Black’s Law Dictionary,
or they have another agenda in filing this."
Wrong motion? IMO no. AL wouldn't make a mistake like this. She is too good at what she does, which is to keep anyone from getting sentenced to Death. It appears to be a dumb move but could be a "win win" in the Defenses mind. What if the fact that a wrong motion was filed slips past the Judge. Judge makes ruling anyway and says no this doesn't come in at trial. Or the Judge throws out the motion and Defense has something to at least bring up on appeal.
IMO they knew it was the wrong motion and they don't care because it allowed them to hit the morning shows - stop just short of saying RK is the Mruderer and spew their jury tainting Rhetoric before this comes in front of the Court.
