Lauramore Barton & Ebron have been constantly quietly communicating with their attorneys in the courtroom. @ActionNewsJax

Attorney: Ebron defense must "tip the scales" to allow info. to be sealed. Compared case to Michael Dunn case. Records allowed then.

Ebron's defense asking judge to make its own redactions to public records if they're allowed. @ActionNewsJax

Ebron defense trying to "preserve his right to a fair trial." Judge makes sure defense is aware burden of proof is on them. @ActionNewsJax

State: "Box loads of material" have already been released. Says they're getting substantial public records requests. @ActionNewsJax

State: Defense's records argument undone since Ebron has been reaching out to the media & providing interviews. @ActionNewsJax

State: "The public has a right to a public courtroom." @ActionNewsJax

State: "We are not there yet" in terms of exposure & media attention. @ActionNewsJax

#ANjaxBreaking: Judge DENIES defense motion to limit records. Says Ebron's attorneys have not met burden of proof. @ActionNewsJax

Judge: Attorneys must abide by obligations of what they can & cannot say/release to media. @ActionNewsJax

NEXT: Arguments to decide if trials are joined. @ActionNewsJax

Attorneys for Lauramore Barton & Ebron disagree w/ joining trials. @ActionNewsJax

Ebron defense says it still doesn't have final supplemental reports from detectives. @ActionNewsJax

State: Ebron defense doesn't need them. They have all the recorded conversations. @ActionNewsJax

Judge: There are sufficient materials to discuss joining trials. May not rule today. @ActionNewsJax

This just breaks my heart! We are no closer to finding him since the very day he went missing. Lonzie deserves Justice!!

I will definitely be lighting a candle in honor of Lonzie. Still waiting on that one tip that breaks this case wide open.

 

[Edinlass]

I know it is deeply sad Lonzie hasn't been located, it breaks my heart tbh.

I am so so happy that they have said RE spoke to the media yet wants information kept from them, can't have it both ways sunshine!

Great result.

I know. How sad. There was so much hope when I first heard about this case that they were going to find him right away. Maybe not alive, but they had that original tip and were doing a search right away. And now, we're still just as far from finding him as in the beginning.

There is no way they will admit to a dead baby.
Not when all they have right now is Child neglect!

Lonzie searcher arrested in Baker County

--snip--
One of the volunteers ( David Pembleton) who’s been searching for missing toddler Lonzie Barton and was warned against interfering in the investigation was arrested Wednesday night.

In an altercation with several deputies, he kicked two of them, according to the sheriff's office. The deputies used their tasers on Pembleton and subdued him.

He’s being held on $240,000 bond on charges of assault on a law enforcement officer, resisting police and driving without a license.

 

[Edinlass]

DP's wife was the one who leaked the recording in the car of LB talking about Lonzie and RE's involvement, the drugs, the drink etc. Surprised MSM never jumped on it.



Poor Lonzie, no information on him. No-one out looking. Beyond belief.
