The evidence includes autopsy and crime scene photos, phone records, GPS data, witness statements and thousands other other pages that an unscrupulous media outlet might pay $1 million or more to get, Waters said.
“This case is unique and it is unprecedented in South Carolina history in as much as it combines violent crime with alleged corruption of someone with a law license on a scale that is somewhat inconceivable,” Waters said.
Hardly the only corrupt lawyer or violent murder in SC history and the “scale” is debatable as the Susan Smith case garnered more media than this. The very reason the prosecution exists is to hold people accountable to rules and law so for them to stand up and excuse themselves for disregarding pesky rules of evidence just sets the appeal up like a bowling pin. The current trial doesn’t even matter anymore as this case will probably run for the next decade thanks to this incompetence.
