Did you listen to the tape?
I listened to the tape.
Where does the judge deny the man his right to a speedy trial???????
Yes, I listened to the tape. My post was in response to your earlier statement that “the judge DOES give the man a right to a speedy trial.” My point, again, is that a judge does not give a right to a speedy trial. The defendant already has that right under the Constitution. A judge can’t give it or take it away. It only goes away if the defendant chooses to waive it. The judge was trying to get the defendant to waive the right and the attorney, appropriately, was having none of it.
