this is great news, i think this shows how corrupt this case was in the first place not to be dismissed. Sean looks in good shape, hey maybe the new prosecutor will drop the case, and he can get up here and work out!

Good Lord, what are they paying prosecutors down there that they have to "moonlight" as DJ's? Needless to say this is great news for ST. I am feeling better and better about my purchase of his jersey this off-season.

HE HAD A F-ING MYSPACE! THATS FOR MIDDLE SCHOOLERS!! and apparently his page, deleated today, had pictures of "scandily clad" young kids...so he is a prosecutor by day, DJ and pedafile by night...sweeet.

Re: Prosecutor In Taylor Case Steps down, after receiving heat for DJ Job
 

Wow. If it's not dismissed now, I'll be really surprised...

WTF is this loser doing? Talk about using a case against an athlete to make your career--it's just that we all thought it was a LEGAL career, not a DJ.

You're jumping the gun -- so to speak! This issue about the assistant prosecutor has nothing to do with Taylor or his case. The guy's boss was quoted saying that nothing on the Web site "compromised the integrity of the Sean Taylor case...."

The thought on the other Taylor thread was for ST to cop a plea because he [I]must[/I] be guilty. This is like saying that the prosecutor had a screw-up, so Taylor must be innocent. Doesn't work that way.

The bad part about all this is that now things could drag into the summer, into training camp. Everybody, including ST, wants to put this behind them however it turns out.

Re: Prosecutor In Taylor Case Steps down, after receiving heat for DJ Job
 

Alot of the verbage is to cover the prosectution's butt. Next step will be to assign a new prosectutor, who will probably review the case for a week before dismissing. The next prosecutor probably doesn't wanna get crucified/embarrased by this superstar legal defense team that was assembled... in the end, I think this was a good move, because now there is probably only a 50/50 shot of actually going to trial.. there is probably a good chance for either dismissal or plea down to jaywalking, etc..

Re: Prosecutor In Taylor Case Steps down, after receiving heat for DJ Job
 

The state should drop the case because it can't reasonably make its burden of proof.

The defense has alleged from the beginning that the case is being prosecuted in order to improve the career of Greico, who is the lead prosecutor here (or he was, until his resignation). The website is evidence of that. Also, it serves to undermine the credibility of the DA's office altogether here. In addition, it raises serious questions about other aspects of the case, concerning the nature of the states witnesses, on which the entier case turns. These guys are all either in jail or wanted in connection with on-going investigations, according to Sharpstein. The DA (Greico) claims "not to have known this." However, given the DJ/website fiasco, it seems clear that he willfully ignored this information to continue his slef-promoting prosecution.

NO way a good lawyer can't effectivly exploit this stuff and destroy ANY possibility of avoiding reasonable doubt.

The DA's office will drop charges and blame Greico. Otherwise, a judge will dismiss, IMHO.

(See the extermeskins Q&A with Taylor's lawyer--very informative. It's linked in another thread.)

Someone preserved this jackass prosecutor's MySpace page. I cant believe that someone in his position would be so absurdly stupid to have a page like this. What a tool!

Some parts NSFW...

Re: Prosecutor In Taylor Case Steps down, after receiving heat for DJ Job
 

I knew that the assistant DA in this case was smokin something, but this is way more than one defendant can ask for. He was moonlighting as prosecutor is more like it. What an absurd turn of events. Case dismissed.

You know, that was my first thought too. Maybe the prosecutor was looking for a "mini-book deal" with this one. He settled for chatting it up at his DJ gigs.

HOLY CRAP!!!!!

That is his web site? And he is a prosecutor?

The dude is just asking to get thrown out, if not reprimanded.

Unbelievable. Certain professions demand a standard of behavior and ethics that are a bit above the crowd. County prosecutor is one of them. This guy has no business practicing law.

Re: Prosecutor In Taylor Case Steps down, after receiving heat for DJ Job
 

Another question for the legal minds on this boards. How does prosecutorial misconduct affect the witness testimony or any other evidence in a case like this? How hard will it be for the defense to bring this incident up in the trial itself if it ever makes it that far. Basically can the defense argue that all the evidence this guy was involved with as he built this joke of a case may be tainted and therefore should be inadmissible?

well it isnt his business site, its his personal blog site, which I guess is fine, even if you have sexual jokes, and little kids cussing. But as soon as you have links about your business, and you are promoting yourself, then that good enough to get you fired.

Play Ball!

Re: Prosecutor In Taylor Case Steps down, after receiving heat for DJ Job
 

Like I said in the earlier thread. The case is looking more and more like a simple publicity grab every time they go to court. What a shame that this type of crap goes on. Guilty or not the justice system looks like a cracker jack toy.

Agreed, but he advertises his status as an attorney all over the place.

Bad move.

the defense attorney they had on 980 said that if this guy was the prosecutor for MD, he wouldn't have a job by monday.

It is funny that all this is happening, now? WTF you would think someone had noticed his myspace and atleast complained about it, like former defendents, etc. Heck maybe even the state??? This guy seems like a totally douche, and not who you would want to be a state prosecutor. I am not going to deny that I want to go to one of this guys parties, bc they look sick lol...

Re: Prosecutor In Taylor Case Steps down, after receiving heat for DJ Job
 

Well if this does get to trail, too bad he's not the prosecutor, sounds like he would really f'ed up the trial.

Re: Prosecutor In Taylor Case Steps down, after receiving heat for DJ Job
 

The case could get dismissed on the pretrial motion to dismiss for prosecutorial misconduct. Thie guy was obviously a bonehead trying to privately profit from his public position.

However, if the motion to dismiss is denied, the prosecutor's conduct will not be an issue at trial. It's simply irrelevant to the charges.

did anyone else notice he went to the U?

Could it get dismissed without prejudice or is that not suitable in this case? Or is that even a legal option in a criminal case?

Seems to me that Taylor when all is said and done in the criminal case could sue for defamation. Is that a possibility?

Generally speaking, it is, although, I have a MySpace page myself. Why? For several reasons. It is a good way to keep an eye on my 16 year old son, who has a page (and is also on my friend list). It gives me a good idea of the people that he hangs out with, what is going on in his head, some deeper insights to his interests. Don't get me wrong, we (wife and I) have great relationships with our 3 sons, but he is at that age that he doesn't care to talk to us about everything.

There are also a few interest groups in there that I belong to, several Redskins groups (my son and I belong to a few of the same), some Jeep groups, and a few others.

But yes, it does get some bad publicity for having been a catalyst for illicit

For everyone who thinks this case is a slam dunk or will get thrown out of court may want to wait and see what happens. Remember that a judge had to review the evidence to allow this trial to move foward and something was there for them to do so. ST was at the place where something happened but we just don't know what it was. Also remember its the job of ST attorney to make them look bad and incompetent. What may realy look bad today might not even be an issue when and if it goes to trial. People step down all the time even though they have done nothing wrong just so there will not be an issue with them. I would love to see the case thrown out but alot can still happen.

Re: Prosecutor In Taylor Case Steps down, after receiving heat for DJ Job
 

indeed. however even if it goes to trial i truly doubt theres enough evidence to prove "beyond the shadow of a reasonable doubt"
