It was Brocchini. He said that yes, they'd done the swab of Scott's hand, but that he'd never picked up the results from the lab--or the lab had never delivered the results, or something like that. It sounded really strange.
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,113700,00.html REDWOOD CITY, Calif. Defense attorneys in Scott Peterson's (search) double-murder trial told a judge Tuesday they believe too many prospective jurors already have concluded their client is guilty and, among other possible remedies, may seek a second move for the trial.
"The prejudgment rate ... is at a level where the court needs to take some action," Peterson lawyer Mark Geragos (search) told the judge.
Geragos said he would file a motion Monday "asking for one of three remedies."
He said he would seek either a change of venue out of San Mateo County (search), to have the judge revisit the issue of having two juries one for the guilt phase and one for the penalty phase or for the defense to be given an additional number of challenges to dismiss unwanted potential jurors.
