Craig is ditching hearing (none / 0) (#16)

Jeralyn, do you agree that — especially given that Craig has now publicly announced that his lawyers have told him not to show up for the hearing himself — prosecutor Chris Renz would be well advised to make a formal hearsay objection on the record to Craig's affidavit (which was attached to his motion to withdraw the plea)?

I think that objection is unquestionably a valid one, and that it would effectively force Craig to either take the witness stand or withdraw his motion.

Ouch (none / 0) (#18)

He's not showing up?  That would be a very bad idea, IMO.

"I've been advised not to," Craig said at the Capitol. "I have very competent lawyers."

Yeah.... not so much.
