The Ex husband has really skated by up to this point because he threw a couple hundred dollars at her Lawyer Redington and bought his silence until ex-hubby refused to continue paying retainer.....(Which can get really expensive in a hurry for guilty clients....just ask my ex wife about why she was constantly changing attorneys....ha ha ha.)Given the lack of forensic evidence and proper investigation the defense took the approach they thought would work,
he really did not have a choice once the Judge denied the request to separate the trials.
This is not legal analysis but just personal thinking, I do think she thought she had done it...but I think now, as she recovers she probably remembers more.
This is a complete miscarriage of justice.
Lying to the press is one thing.....lying before the judge in court is another.....and retainers do not cover one of the two.
But honestly the prosecution was asleep at the wheel and got railroaded by Redington....even an average attorney could have won this one. But with a huge ego maniac like Redington? Fuhgetaboutit.....
