Why pay to have transcripts if you are found not guilty?

Scratch that part. What I was thinking is why request transcripts if you didn't think you were going to appeal (which would depend on all of the other motions in process after the conviction). Only when they found out that they would get 11 and 12 years, and only after all of their motions (including those requesting reduced sentencing) had been denied, did they request the transcript as the appeal process looks like the only resort.

Congressman Ted Poe of Houston, plus several other members of Congress, have been meeting with the Feds and demanding full transcripts of the trial, plus other documents, since at least September of 2006

There is definitely a lot of stonewalling occuring
