bedlamVR Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 In the article that has all readdy been posted regarding LaVAr in Giants town http://washingtontimes.com/sports/2...10231-3619r.htm There is an interesting paragraph at the end of page two which refers to Taylors trial being put off indefinitely to give time to allow the state office time to get a new lead up to speed . Is this goo or bad news I would have thought they would have had someone else involved who wouldnt need that much time . Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21KillzCowboys Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 The link is empty Here is the good one: http://www.washingtontimes.com/sports/20060425-010231-3619r.htm Gibbs talked with safety Sean Taylor about his legal issues. Taylor's assault trial has been delayed indefinitely while the prosecution gets a new lead attorney up to speed. "There were reasons for it being moved each time," Gibbs said. "I don't think anybody has a handle on it. If they continue to move it, it would be a concern as the season gets closer." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Jones Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 The link is dead, but if you go to the Lavar thread the link is active. Difficult to discern what this means because we don't know what is going on behind the scenes. The prosecution should not need more than a couple of weeks to prepare for this case unless they are opening up the case and interviewing witnesses etc. for a second time. The lead investigator should simply brief the lead ADA and provide reports and such for review. I guess this is a good sign for ST because they are re-evaluating the case and hopefully will decline to prosecute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess this is a good sign for ST because they are re-evaluating the case and hopefully will decline to prosecute. That's my thoughts on this. If they are "bringing a new lead prosecutor up to speed" on this case, it most likely means a re-evaluation of the case. A new prosecutor may not see the same probable cause that Mr. Greico saw. For the most part, I'd say that this a good development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoony Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 This whole thing is a public disgrace... the people of Miami-Dade county should be ashamed of their judicial system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I see this as a bad sign and find it a little strange his defense team didn't use the media to blast the prosecution for further delays. Heck, why not just put this lunacy off until AFTER another football season since it's "indefinite". With any luck, by the time this case actually comes to trial his accusers will already be in jail and their testimony will mean even less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.Taylor Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I see this as a bad sign and find it a little strange his defense team didn't use the media to blast the prosecution for further delays. I see the fact that the Sharpsteins apparently see no need to use the media as a further sign that the prosecution is re-evaluating the merits of the case. :logo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCBnG21 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Don't know if it was already posted, but the new prosecutor is Abe Laeser, preliminary searches would suggest that he's a veteran, and tried some reasonably large cases for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvan1 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 tomorrow should also be interesting, as the attorneys for ST file their next dismissal attempt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCBnG21 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Yeah, tomorrow at 2, I wonder if all this means that it looks like it won't get dismissed... I don't know what the chances are anyways. It has taken on a strange quiet to it, almost as if it's forgotten down there.... There were a few predictions that this would happen and it would quietly be dismissed, I wonder if that's going to be the case.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know what will happen, but I do know Judges don't like to set indefinetly as their court date. I would be surprised if a continutation with no date is allowed.

MidPennSkin Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I see the delay as good news, because it makes it more likely that Sean's accusers will go to trial for their recent arrests. It is my understanding that if they are convicted before the Taylor trial, that information can be brought out in the trial to attack their credibility. If they have been arrested but not convicted, that can't be used against them in the Taylor trial. If there are any lawyers following this thread, could they comment on this?

So, Taylor's case has gone from being handed to an ADA-slash-DJ, to a veteran prosecutor who's tried large cases. They know they've got some damage to fix on this...

More Complete Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 It should be dismissed for lack of prosecution! What happened to the right of a speedy trial? I don't know but there is a time frame, if it doesn't get taken care of in a certain amount of time it gets thrown out. That's legal jargon for "you can't continue a case forever" :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sacase Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Man I read about that Abe guy....He questioned a guy for 10 hours about a shooting......that is a long time to answer questions....sounds like Abe is no joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadcase! Long time no see.... So, I was reading your post history, and noticed a few things. I'd so over 80% of your posts on the board relate to the ST Trial, and you seem to be a defender of the prosecution...even ADADJ Dirty Sanchez, ESQ. Just curious, you don't seem to interested in everything else on the board, but pop up in all these threads, so whats with the intense interest in the whole thing? The last part is just more general curiousness...but what does your name stand for, S A Case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
