This is an extremely slippery slope when it comes to the privacy of client attorney communications and Constitutional rights.

I imagine they could also solve a lot of crimes if they started water-boarding priests to find out what has been said at confession.

Already was done to Giuliani and Cohen in connection with Trump. But not in Wyoming.

Walker offered to hand his phone over to the authorities – to verify certain original videos.

It seems to me that if the phone's owner (Walker) wants the phone turned over to the police for any reason, then his lawyer's possession should be terminated. Gay is using the phone for some purpose, but the owner wants it used by a different agency for a different purpose.

Why should the lawyer be allowed to hold onto the phone against the owner's wishes? Semantically, this is theft on the lawyer's part in my mind.

Yeah, I don't this one will float.. The lawyers pretty much own the legal system nowadays and there ain't noway they'll stand still for this one.

You can’t search a lawyer or anybody else without probable cause. The rules are the same.

I’m confused.. Did the guy tell his lawyer to Shari the phone with the popo, and the lawyer refused to do so, against his client’s wishes?

Or did Walker say he’d share the phone, so the popo just went to the lawyer’s house and took it?
