getting a conviction, that that would be an ethical sort of issue. it doesn t look, even if you take these allegations at face value and believe them, like they would trip the georgia stat statute. these allegations have a public impact. perhaps they re designed to prejudice potential jury members. the lawyer has played it straight up in her pleadings. she s a lawyer with a good reputation, known for her competence. it s remarkable here we don t know what the factual basis for these shocking allegations are. i think what we will have to do is agree to withhold judgement until we hear more about the basis for the allegations that she s made and willis response. blayne, we don t expect any response in the immediate future. but there is a response getting
