Poor Kay and Larry. Now they have to endure more delays and shenanigans by the defense. And wait longer to bury JJ.
It is really sad and heartbreaking, but (and this is not meant to “defend” the defense) as Scott Reisch said yesterday in his video about this, the State themselves have recently filed for some more DNA testing. He asked things like “what on Earth are they doing?” and why have they been waiting THIS long, getting so close to a scheduled trial when it doesn’t appear to be anything that they recently uncovered through investigations.
If we take the Defense’s Motions out of the picture for a second, the State waiting so long for that testing, they still haven’t turned over the grand jury transcripts, haven’t given the Defense contact info for the potential 104 witnesses so they cannot even reach out and locate some of them for their own investigations,etc…..then they too are
partly to blame for any further delay. If Defense was not asking for the trial to be pushed back for the reasons they’ve stated, the State is in my opinion GIVING them reasons to ask for it to be pushed back. The “Bill of Particulars” from each Defense side outlines a bunch of stuff they claim they still haven’t gotten yet. I too am asking myself the same question as Reisch is - what are they doing and waiting for?
I said in a previous post that Prior asked for Grand Jury transcript I think first in July 2021 and the Court ordered it to be prepared shortly after his request. As of last week he is still asking for what he has not received……why is that?! I know we don’t have or know the answers to that but it’s just so extremely disappointing. Asking additional rhetorical questions like are they purposefully delaying in handing over Discovery to the Defense? Are they just inexperienced as Scott Reisch said (video was linked to by another user a few posts back) and they don’t realize how much of a future issue they’re causing by not complying with these things within a timely manner?
Regardless of the reason or reasons, it still leads to the same conclusion, and it worries me that we have all of this stuff so far delaying everyone on this path towards justice. JMHO.
I really feel for the family members. Some of Kay and Larry’s public comments about releasing the bodies have made me wonder if the State through their w Advocates had even prepared them for some of this stuff (like that more delays could happen, that this trial may get pushed back). Just so, so sad.
