some excerpts from Dispatch article heres the link .http://www.the-dispatch.com/article/20160406/news/160409872?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
Holton said that he has concern because Corbett has been subject to harassment and death threats. He requested the assistance of the court. Holton said any person involved in the case should refrain or be encouraged not to harass.
Davidson County Assistant District Attorney Alan Martin said the Davidson County District Attorneys Office would do its part if prosecutors found someone doing the harassing. He said the DAs office would extinguish the problem or let the harasser know they would be prosecuted. Judge Kevin Bridges said anyone associated with the case should refrain from taking part in the harassment.
Davidson County District Attorney Garry Frank said his office has turned over reports as it receives them. Its a mass of information, he said. The sheriffs department worked on this for a long, long time. There were some personal issues, health issues relative to some of the officers working on the case, so there were some delays. We could have just held onto everything and given it at one time, but we gave it immediately as we got it.
That led to the discrepancies. Its our intention and duty to give everything. Thats what our goal and objective is. Its a nonissue. We give it.
Holton said part of the reason for a change of venue is the DCSOs handling of turning over documents in the case. He said the DCSO ushers the jury in and out of the courtroom.
(I dont know what DCSO refers to??)
Holton claimed the investigation is to try to get to an end. Its not to find the truth, he said. Its to produce a result. Everything they have done has been to produce a result. The result they want is a charge and a conviction of two innocent people. This is not a fact-finding mission on their part. It is 'lets get a charge and lets try to convict somebody,' kind of at all costs. (he's really insulting)
Davidson County Sheriff David Grice said that the purpose of the investigation is always to find out the facts. He said his investigators discussed information with the DAs office in great detail.
This case will be determined by evidence in the courtroom, Grice said. Thats where we are at. This is what we expect in a high-profile case for the other side to make claims like this. Its no surprise.
Frank said the DCSO bailiffs who usher jurors in and out of the courtroom do so in every case. He said that wasnt a legitimate argument. Frank said the case has received international attention, but it was too premature to talk about a change of venue.
The next administrative court date is set for the week of May 30.
