I am guessing that the in camera hearing must have been what really terrified the prosecution.
Keep in mind this was a defense witness that absolutely did not want to testify. It was bewildering because I was watching the hearing and felt that the aggressive thrusts by the various defense attorneys had all failed to penetrate the attorney client privilege protections. It seemed as if Bradley would be released without giving up the Fani.
But then the prosecution pillaged Bradley and laid him bare before the judge as not being a credible witness. The defense objected that the prosecution had even exceeded the boundaries allowed under Rule 608b.
The defense table popped champagne as they realized that what the defense failed to achieve over the two days with this witness had been accomplished in 7 minutes of cross by the prosecution.
The judge commented that he and Bradley would have to explore the matter further to discern if Bradley would be allowed to claim attorney client privilege as broadly as he had done.
I would encourage everyone to smoke ‘em if you got ‘em because this was not the ending. It is just an intermission.
Did I hear this correctly: Bradley received a phone call while he was on the stand that was interpreted by defense counsel as a threat not to testify against Fani and Wade.
