Now I understand where the conflicting info was reported when AL was arrested at the apartments. Remember some reports said A.N. said he had a knife, others a box cutter? That's because of the 2 officers reports > And one does say that upon arriving at the jail he refused medical and asked for a lawyer. Just going by report. Don't throw any shoes at me

 

[arkansasmimi]

That news video (your second link)... oh my goodness. WATCH IT!!! I have no words. I just said that he will probably claim that he was denied an attorney. Well... thats exactly what he said in that video. Mimi heard him in court with her own ears- the judge asking several times if he wants an attorney and he says no. He gets in the hall and claims they wont let him have one. And by the way--- we all know he has a damn pencil. It might be a nub with all of the complaints and lawsuits he has filed, but that boy has a writing utensil. For personal reasons only, I wish he didnt. There are no words to describe this guy!

EDIT: Oh, see! I hadnt clicked the twitter link yet! There's evidence of the writing utensil right there! Moron.

BBM Shannon Miller misreported.... at 1;12 The Judge DID NOT ask if he would like Co Councel ... AL asked for Co Councel and the Judge said no, he couldn't have a mouth piece... either An attorney or Pro Se. But this was after quite abit of discussion back and forth. This article makes it sound like he went in asking for co councel, and that's not what happened. http://www.fox16.com/story/d/story/...laski-co-realtor/88953/UhQ7QHYQPEW0kVXrbD7Y8Q

Arron Lewis, 34, who is representing himself in his upcoming trial, asked the judge for a list of items he said were needed to prepare his case.

Lewis was asking for a co-counsel, access to a laptop computer and his cellphone. ***Only after discussion back and forth with Judge speaking of needing an Attorney. HE DID NOT GO IN ASKING FOR CO-COUNSEL
The judge told Lewis he must make the requests in writing and gave him

ETA its also misleading the way this is written in the article. "

 

[arkansasmimi]

Arron was read his Miranda rights when he arrived at CID. Officer who brought him to PCSO said he asked for an attorney. So Arron Lewis knew he anything he said can and will be held against him. By his on interrogatory questions he confirms he spoke to Det Allison!!!! So its on him that he didn't keep his mouth shut :facepalm:

Judge said in part it wasn't their responsibility to provide. And iirc it was around this time that the Judge made the comment of tip of iceberg. The response from Pros about could have gotten one from commissary I took as sarcasm but jmho. Since he doesn't have a commissary account I don't think he could have. Again, jmo. That possibly could have been reason for getting upset, that and as he put it "snatching" electronics from him, that got him pepper sprayed. Not defending him, just stating opinion.

Wait, I thought that's what Crystal had placed $100 into. Is that a different kind of account?

She put that $ on his account at the prison, it was before she was arrested. So it would be a different account. He was at the Pulaski Count Regional Jail (where CL is incarcerated) only to look over evidence. I could be totally wrong but I don't think accounting wise the accounts are like a bank account to use anywhere. JMO. That's why I took the Pros saying it as sarcasm.

Aaah, ok, I see. So his account is somewhere different than where he was for evidence. Thanks for clearing that up.

AL has requested a lawyer. Actually, he's requested TWO lawyers. One isn't enough.

Of course, he's blaming it on the prosecutor. LOL It's not that he's in over his head....it is that the prosecutor isn't following the rules. :eyeroll:

In the motion he states:

"<snip> the prosecutor has failed to comply with Rule 17.1(c) and the Defendant is unable to make the prosecutor comply, even after bringing the matter before the court.

Therefore, the Defendant is forced to request that counsel be apponted as he is not being given a fair opportunity to examine physical evidence and present a defense.

Wherefore the Defendant prays that the court order the public defender commission to appoint 2 competent attorneys to represent him forthwith AND suspend all further proceedings until such attorneys can assume representation of the Defendant."

 

[concernedmother]

What a wack job. I bet the attorneys are praying the judge don't appoint them. Some unlucky one will get chosen.

 

[jstkiddn]

......and the Order to Appoint Council has been issued and a continuance has been granted. Omnibus hearing is Oct. 5, 2015 and jury trial on counts one and two (capital murder and kidnapping?) is now set for Jan. 12, 2016 and is yet to be set on the remaining count (possession of firearms by certain persons?). Am I reading that correctly?

From the order:

"The Defendant has contacted this Court and expressed a desire for an appointed attorney and filed a formal motion requesting such on June 9, 2015. The Arkansas Public Defender Commission is appointed to represent the Defendant. Attorney Bill James will proceed as the Defendant's counsel of record. The Defendant has also requested a continuance, which is hereby granted. The Defendant's omnibus hearing will be held on October 5, 2015. The jury trial for counts one and two is set for January 12, 2016. A jury trial for the remaining count will be set."

So, what does this do for CL's case? Will she also file for a continuance or will her trail go ahead as planned and be before ALs?

All he's done with his little lawyer wannabe act is drag this out, waste a bunch of time and worst of all...keep this family from being able to put this behind him. Really makes me angry! That said, if the judge had NOT allowed this to happen, it would have been grounds for a mistrial.

edit to add: I'm guessing this is the new lawyer? The firt guy listed? I guess any lawyer can volunteer to work with the public defender's office? http://www.littlerockcriminaldefense.com/attorneys/

I am not at all surprised. I never believed it would go to trial that soon. I also predict, based on all the other cases I have followed it will drag out a few years. AL has nothing to lose by dragging things out. In fact, I dare say he quite enjoys the attention. I feel badly for the Carter family, as it drags all of this out for them.

I don't think I will ever understand the attorneys that volunteer for cases like this. Especially after seeing how AL has acted already. Mind boggling.

I think he's going to have his hands full with this one!

 

[Tallula.Belle]

Exactly. I sure wouldn't have volunteered for the job.

 

[arkansasmimi]

What a wack job. I bet the attorneys are praying the judge don't appoint them. Some unlucky one will get chosen.

LOL I sure that high percentage of the clients the Public Defenders office gets are wack jobs

 

[concernedmother]

You couldn't pay me big bucks to represent him. I just don't have the patience for game players.

 

[concernedmother]

Is there a reason he was going to be tried first? I dont know why hers would have to be postponed. Maybe thats why he is doing all this crazy stuff. So she would be tried first.

 

[KayKay.85]

Hmmm...should we place bets on how many public defenders he will go through? Lol

The judge may not let him fire any more. JA tried to get KN removed several times and the judge wouldnt allow it. IDK how that works.

Cell phone was blowing up today!! Vineline... (In the Noah White case, his mother was released on a court order and in AL case saying that his hearing was canceled .. meaning the July 8 trial) As I said of my take away after June 1 hearing. I felt that AL would file a motion to have an attorney appointed. With only 1 week to write whatever motions and get mailed (thru snail mail) honestly it would be his only choice time frame wise. So I am not shocked on this. I was kind shocked to see the docket page. By looking at it, it appears to me that CL trial has been postponed also? She still has report date of July 7 per the Judges notes from March 4, https://contexte.aoc.arkansas.gov/i...resent2?DMS_ID=FT1XCJ99HV8X61FLTP274VOU08RBIU ...I guess by the looks of the docket now, they will be setting CL with a new trial date too? I was thinking she would have to go thru with hers, sinces they severed and having separate trials. Guess not....
