On January 18,
Inner City Press live tweeted
the final pre-trial
conference, thread.
On January 23,
after lengthy ex parte
sidebars, it was said JOH for
the February 12 trial could
get a second lawyer, at the US
taxpayers' expense, by filing
out a sworn affidavit claiming
poverty. He did - and at 6 pm
on January 23 Inner City Press
filed with the Court a motion
to unseal JOH's financial
affidavit - as it requested,
and got, for Tigre Bonilla.
Now in docket - letter now on
