DDC COURT, May 2
–
In a high profile January 6
case, the conditions in jail
and of discovery came into
focus on May 2. Inner City
Press live tweeted here:
now Jan 6 case of
US v. Pezzola, Tarrio,
Nordean, Rehl & Biggs, DDC
Judge Kelly is asking about
discovery "difficulties,"
Inner City Press is covering
the case
DOJ's
"Capital Breach discovery
coordinator" said that while
Jan 6 defendants in CFT in the
DC Jails can watch the Jan 6
videos on tablet, none of
these high-profile defendants
are in the CFT. She said they
cannot be moved there either
Judge Kelly
says " to those counsel who
recently argued a sealed
motion before me, in the next
few days I will have a
decision for you on paper" -
meaning even the decision will
be non public?
Complaint is made
the the jail(s) not
compensated for discovery
costs, laptops being broken
and misappropriate. Says it's
up to the US Marshal Service
to pay for this; asks why DC
Superior Court defendants
can't also get discovery
laptops
Judge
Kelly: It seems like this
system of discovery on laptops
will be continue for
defendants other than the
January 6 defendants... I see
that Ms. Miller is shaking her
head, No. AUSA Miller: The
Evidence [dot] com program,
we've only used for this case
Tarrio's lawyer
is seeking to get his client
moved back to jail in Miami,
where there are "four
classrooms to meet in."
Now AUSA Miller
is turning to conditions (for
discovery at least) in the
jail in Alexandria.
Bigg's lawyer: The
presentation so far is
tonedeaf
Another DC
defense lawyer: I like the
trilogy, ending with replete
with broken promises. Judge
Kelly: You can use that in
your next closing, Ms.
Hernandez [she also helps
defends Pauline Bauer, for now
(Bauer wants her off the
case?)
AUSA Miller turns
to Lewisburg,
where Domenic Pezzola is; she
said lawyers can send
discovery by "Special Mail,"
only on CD or DVD. But the
AUSA can authorize a hard
drive.
Ms. Hernandez: Only the AUSAs
can send hard drives to
Lewisburg. And they often
encrypt them. AUSA Miller
turns to the jail in Philly,
says there is legal visitation
by WebEx, not sure if document
sharing is available.
Inner City Press
will continue to cover these
cases.
