You seem to know a lot about this case.
In your opinion, why is this taking so long to go to trial?
I just read things here and there about it. It seems the longer the wait the less likely justice will be done.
Pardon me for jumping in, but
#1, complexities of the multiple issues for multiple defendants,
#2, Actions, such as last week’s by the P informing the D of the existence of possible exculpatory evidence. This is done to the greatest extent possible to deny any post-conviction appeals that it was not done.
#3, Most probably Tier 2 defs coming in with proffers, trying to make a deal to avoid serious jail time. In many cases, the proffer will include the production of physical evidence or the promise of the physical location of such. That is so much better than just spoken testimony. Such physical evidence takes time to work. As just one example, someone has access to the gangs’ accounting, and remember, that’s how they got Capone on federal income tax charges.
