  • State files Motion for Protective Order: to withhold discovery consisting of all statements made by [the] accessory after the fact...and any affidavits or warrants making reference to such statements, citing alleged conflicts of interest of defense counsel, the State contended that...divulgence of these statements and affidavits would place the witness and evidence in jeopardy. Defense counsel's actions at best create the impression that witnesseses could have been compromised, and to allow access to the testimony of another key witness could create the impression that the public interest in a fair adjudicatory process has been compromised.
