The document at your link is astounding. Since Crump and Fulton desperately wanted the State to have their “evidence”, you can bet they gave the State this note before GZ was even charged (if it existed then; it’s odd that the note wasn’t mentioned in BdlR’s W8 depo).
Per his own document, BdlR withheld this note from the Defense until 3-15-13, almost a year later. What sort of fool would bring up such an item as an Exhibit in defending himself against allegations of delaying/withholding evidence from discovery, etc.? Either Bernie de la Rionda is not too smart, knows he can do no wrong with this judge, or is doing his best to blow the case. Or all of the above.
Exactly.
The prosecution withholds evidence for a year and then to defend itself from an accusation that it withheld evidence, it releases this DeeDee letter that it has been withholding -- a letter incidentally that could have been scribbled together 10 minutes before giving it to the defense.
