Prosecutors have new material and information that they dont want released to the pub

[Leila]

I am thinking it's something along these lines. Because if the DA had something that benefited them, a "slam drunk" piece of evidence they why not release it? One would think that if it was in favor of the DA they would want it out there!

Not if disclosure of this new witness and/or information would so harm the defense that the defense could then make the claim that the state has destroyed the suspect's Constitutional right to a fair trial by tainting the jury pool.

In most states, the information/discovery is passed only between the prosecution and defense, and the public is excluded from knowing any of the evidence prior to trial. But, Florida's Sunshine Law, in which it's deemed the public's "right to know", makes it difficult on both the prosecution and defense, as discovery automatically becomes public knowledge. Both sides must handle discovery with discretion and sensitivity.

The prosecution is not asking to withhold the information permanently, only to delay the release of the information. Obviously, the prosecution has some new information that's come as the result of investigation and they only want a delay while they process that information.

So who is JK?

Kronks ex wife from 1990. lol!

Perhaps it isn't politically correct to destroy baez's career as a (cough) attorney in the public eye. So the S.A wants a meeting with JS behind closed doors without Jose to discuss what needs to be done prior to letting this discovery be released?

Seeing as the trial has been pushed way back, without much fuss from the SA, perhaps they know a new attorney may be needed? ( dc comes to mind with this latest new discovery)

Very interesting possibility!

RK's ex-wife.

I should have said...JK who? Just a memory now. Seems like the SA's office knows how to quiet the 'ole defense, now don't they.

 

[RR0004]

Jill Kerley.....

ex wife (of 4 mos) to Kronk

I should have added <<said sarcastically>>.

We still must wait to hear if Judge S will grant or deny this motion...

If anyone is interested below is the Ex Parte Motion filed earlier in this case by the Defense

Hmmmmm.............ex parte usually means within 72 hours, at least it does here in California. So, we can expect this to come before JS very quickly, possibly by tomorrow, or at the latest, Monday.

But I am truly stumped by "BC". Is it Brad C?

 

[TallCoolOne]

that's interesting, it would be freaky if it's ZFG or something!

(p.s. I just have to disagree with your comment there about the defense supposedly defaming RK! The defense isn't responsible for RK hanging around the remains site or the fact his ex-wife says he used to restrain her with duct tape! I don't think RK can blame the defense for those things.....
With the degree of defamation of Casey and her family that has gone on, I just have to laugh at the defense being accused of defaming anyone in this case! There's no comparison. IMO.)

Really? So in how does it stack up against how the defense has attempted to throw just about every person associated with KC under the bus? The majority of her friends have been trying to get the tire tracks washed out of their shirts for quite some time now. Not to mention peripheral persons who did not know her (Zanny for instance).

Yeah, thanks for the laugh!! HA!

 

[RR0004]

Where did JK come up again - Jill Kerley?

Long forgotten IMO

How come the reporters down in Orlando haven't asked for any comments...from the As...from Baez?

LOL! I got it.:crazy:

yes, and you are usually one of the sharper pencils in this case. Were you having a few celebratory martinis?

- and isn't the silence deafening right now?

This is killing me!

LMAO! LG she's pulling your leg and you're falling for it. Sorry for the O/T mods. I've had my laughs for the day from this thread alone!

 

[ZsaZsa]

I wondered that, but the likelihood of getting any honest response from Baez is slim to none, specially if it's Kathi Belich asking, and the SA's not talking so they might feel it'd be unproductive at this time..

 

[RR0004]

Not yet...but I'm thinking I better!

He's always been Brad to me! LOL

 

[RainyGirl]

Yes, you are correct. Whatever this new "info" (I also like the idea of not calling it evidence yet) is it absolutely is discoverable. Eventually the defense WILL get their hands on it.

But I doubt they'll want it once they see it .....

bbm......it's gonna be like a hot potato being lobbed their way.

JMO!

I may not make it till trial. I wish someone down there would watch the movement of the players in this case. Like, how come no one has kept an eye on DC?

BUT....if it only involves a daisy chain from KC to CA to DC, why would SA request the defense NOT be a party to this meeting with Strickland?

I think you are on the right track, but I still say that I think JB is part of this daisy chain, IF it is true that he had knowledge that CA directed DC to that area, and HE (JB) then contacted DC requesting that HE be notified if anything was found BEFORE LE was contacted...

So perhaps daisy chain is KC - CA - DC - JB

I think THAT connection is why SA wants to meet privately without the attendance of the defense team.

And I agree with your addition of JB to this daisy chain.........it's that addition that really indicates why the defense would be excluded from the private meeting with JS. The chips are slowing falling into place.
