    How insane would it be if he got off due to a technicality. Not holding my breath, but here’s hoping.

      On the flip side, if they illegally discover evidence but can prove an alternative, legal, way it could be discovered it becomes admissible. That’s sometimes why they do it.

      Alec Baldwin got off because of screw-ups like this. Seems like when there’s a high profile case, all the big shots who normally don’t do any work all want to jump in and be involved. And then make stupid mistakes because they don’t have any real experience because they’re normally too important to work a case.

        Good money to be made when you hook up a guy like that. That’s how careers have been made.

      It may be a great way for the state to avoid a “not guilty” verdict.

      His getting off a technicality doesn’t make it clear he has support.
