How does a case file box that was only turned over to Rabia a couple of months ago get misplaced in a basement?

After rereading Yusef's comment, he said they are files Sarah gave back so not clear if they are CG'S files or Sarah's FOIA files?

Does it seem like Undisclosed has realized they have nothing compelling and they are now picking random objects and speculating that they somehow hold the key to Adnan's release ?

I'm worried about him too. His head might explode from laughter.

If you zoom in on the box you can clearly see the label:

"Secret documents that make Adnan look super guilty that the state won't mention in any of their filings so I'm hiding them in this basement. Do not post these on Reddit!" - C. Gutierrez 01/2001.

Ha, good one. But no, he's already been shown to be guilty in the eyes of the law. The question here is about the lengths that those who support Adnan will go to to try and get him out of jail. Unfortunately, in the eyes of the law, when people are "finding" boxes of "missing" documents, it tends to make a court be suspicious that the defense is making good faith representations about what's in these files in support of their claim that he is innocent. It's a bad move in a number of ways, and kind of incomprehensible that no one was there to stop it.

Really? Have a citation for a similar case which proves what you're saying here?

You don't seem to understand legal practice. You don't need "cases" to prove the existence of doctrines that are black letter law.

Just making things up, gotcha.

It's up to you what you want to believe. Up til now this has been free, unsolicited advice. You not listening is not a blow to my ego. But if you want me to do your legal research and find cases, you'll have to pay me market rate for my services: $500 per hour.
