[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone in NoVA able to attend AP's preliminary hearing on 1/17 at 2pm? Open to the public.

[/quote]I’m attending.[/quote]

Just remember that family members and friends who are grieving will be there. This isn't a reality show. [/quote]

Well actually our criminal justice system is the ultimate reality show - free and open to the public nearly 100% of the time. Just mind your manners in the audience, please! ~ former prosecutor[/quote]

Good point.

Former prosecutor, when might the trial date for AP be set with a prelim on 1/17? [/quote]

I practiced out in the mountain west, so I cannot speak to the docket speed in NoVa post-covid, but I am sure it is slow. Before covid we would typically see cases stretch out from prelim to trial over 2-3 years. An initial trial date will be set much sooner of course with a nod to speedy trial, but typically defense will waive speedy and will stretch things out themselves as they make various pre-trial motions.[/quote]

2-3 years??[/quote]

Lawyer here and yep several years is completely normal. [/quote]

So all these posters thinking LE will get BB soon may be completely wrong! Some people are saying the trial starts next week so I think there’s a lot of confusion.  [/quote]

It will all be reported on and people will learn more about how the justice system works.

Will the IRS hold his job and pay him indefinitely in these circumstances? Anyone with Fed HR knowledge? Or would they shift him to a non-LE role? [/quote]
