Wednesday, April 9th, 2008Three more notes were passed to the judge yesterday. – The radio excerpt on 1e is not the complete audio excerpt heard in the courtroom. May we please have the complete exhibit heard in the courtroom.  - In Count II, the wording indicates that the Defendants are charged with conspiring with each other and other [...]
