I believe she was retained by the family before the BS/JT circus came to town wasn't she? If that is the case, then the family fired her on the advice of someone.

MOO

IIRC, it went like this: BS came on because he was hired by a "wealthy benefactor" to find Lisa. He then announced he was going to bring on the psychologist lady. JT came on board shortly after and because he cannot practice law in KC, CS came on board. BS then left. And now CS has been fired.

I think that's how it went anyway....

Because he's not from that state he has to have a local attorney to confer with in order to practice in that area...One of our verified attorney's posted the terminology for it, but i cannot remember what it is

Tacopino can appear pro hac vice on application to the court if and when there is an actual proceeding involving his client. Absolutely has to have local counsel. They had Sean O'Brien of Kansas's Innocence Project for a few days, then Cyndy Short. I think Cyndy talked too much. Both house tours were ill-advised in my opinion. Why would the parents or their attorneys start issuing daily press releases?

Me too! So far the words out of mouth haven't been lady like. It's downhill from here. If anybody interrupts me at work, I may have to :bigfight:
 
Cyndy Short, a Kansas City area attorney, is no longer representing the parents of missing baby Lisa Irwin.

Sources tell KCTV5 that Short was forced off the case Thursday. It is unclear Friday whether that came at the direction of Joe Tacopina, a New York attorney.

Tacopina joined the case last week.

Neither Short or Tacopina could be reached for comment Thursday night or Friday.

KCTV5's Jeanene Kiesling asked baby Lisa's parents, Debbie Bradley and Jeremy Irwin, about Short no longer representing them when they returned to a relative's home Thursday night.

"This is the first I've heard of it," Bradley replied. "You know as much as I do."http://www.kctv5.com/story/15898355/short-forced-off-the-baby-lisa-case

but short told the KC star yesterday that she was hired by the family and only they could 'fire' her...:waitasec:
 
Can anyone at least say if the phone call woman is the neighbor? Is it someone we have heard of before now??

Not sure why we cannot give the name if it has been on two MSM shows this a.m.??
 
Sooooo...does this count as our recommended daily dose of press conference?
 
I had assumed JT thought Short was f'n up royaly, tours of the home, media blitz, allowing the children to be re-interviewed and pulled the plug on it.

Is it really the other way about? Short didn't want those thing but JT did?

I'm so confused.

Well, Ms. Short doesn't want the boys to be questioned due to "additional trauma". I don't understand. It has already been confirmed that the boys would be interviewed by child specialists, non-threatening method and setting, no detectives in the room, detectives and parents' team could watch from afar (I presume).

I will never understand how another professionally-conducted interview to answer questions based on the new story from Debbi (totally different tale of events than when the boys were questioned the first time) is assumed to have the power to potentially traumatize these boys more than the fact that their sister is missing and they might have been able to help, but weren't allowed.

Plus, I'm sorry, but Lisa has undoubtedly been traumatized radically. I don't see why the parents would allow the lawyer to decide that some potential trauma to the boys is not worth saving Lisa from certain immeasurable trauma, unless the parents (and probably the attorney) know for a fact that Lisa's trauma has ended and she is not alive.

See ya Ms. Short. :seeya:

BBM - Agree with this post 100 percent. JMO but I think not discussing the disappearance of their little sister that was supposedly snatched out of her crib in the middle of the night would have a more traumatic effect. One would think that these little boys would need some reassurances that no one is going to snatch them in the middle of the night....

ABC News reported on Friday morning that Short was forced off the case overnight. No other details were released.

I suspected that was coming. Not because I don't think she is an excellent attorney but I think her moves yesterday right down to the 'to exhausted" put the nail in the coffin.

Press releases daily? A tour of the home? a couple just seemed to be not as helpful at least in how they were announced as could be.

Felt she was a little over her head and if anyone was making publicity hay out of the two attorneys she sure was ahead of the game..not necessarilty for anything but believing in her client yet seemed to me that it may have made local media happy but wasn't helpful to some other things.

I thought if the person's name was mentioned in MSM, we were allowed to post it. Who is it? Any relation to the family? Thanks

No idea if this person is related to the family or not.

If nursebeeme says I can say the name, I will.

Judge Janine also stated that her LE sources DID confirm the outgoing phone call being made.

I understand, nursebeeme. I thought that would be the case and that is why I didn't name this woman.
 
Ok, how about this (bear with me, I don't have most video ATM, am on the iPad):

Do phone call lady's initials match the initials of drinking buddy lady? :innocent:
