Jackson Lawyer Explains Trial Delay Request
POSTED: 6:16 am PST December 20, 2004
UPDATED: 12:15 pm PST December 20, 2004
LOS ANGELES -- A lawyer for Michael Jackson urged a judge Monday to delay the start of the pop star's child molestation trial, claiming prosecutors had "sandbagged" the defense team by turning over incorrect and misspelled witness names.
"We're very conscious that the court did not want to hear the 'c' word," defense attorney Robert Sanger said about the request for a six-week continuance. "The problem is we feel we're really being sandbagged here on a number of things."
Sanger told Superior Court Judge Rodney S. Melville that prosecutors had recently provided an updated witness list filled with errors. Among other things, the problem caused defense lawyers to initially think a porn star was being called as a witness, Sanger said.
"It really did put us behind the eight ball," he said.
Santa Barbara County District Attorney Tom Sneddon countered that a continuance should not be granted and accused Jackson's defense team of hyperbole.
"We are ready for trial and we oppose a continuance," Sneddon said.
Of the 164 names on the updated list, 70 were taken from the defense, Sneddon said. He acknowledged a few spelling errors but said the names should have been easily recognizable.
During the hearing, both sides estimated the trial could last as long as five months. Melville was expected to rule on the continuance within the next few days.
The trial is currently scheduled to start on Jan. 31. Jackson's lawyers are seeking the delay to sort through 14,000 pages of evidence filed by prosecutors over the past two months.
Jackson, 46, is charged with molesting a boy, conspiracy and administering an intoxicating agent, alcohol, to his alleged victim. The entertainer -- who on Friday personally greeted a group of children touring his Neverland Ranch before the Christmas holidays -- was not required to attend the week's hearings.
Prosecutors had been expected to argue that they be allowed to present evidence during the trial of alleged wrongdoing in the entertainer's past. But according to a court calendar released Monday, that motion won't be heard until next month.
In their motion, Jackson's attorneys also asked that the charges be dismissed on grounds of "vindictive prosecution and outrageous government conduct," pointing to the execution of more than 100 search warrants including this month's raid on Jackson's estate near Los Olivos.
Melville previously rejected a similar defense effort to remove Sneddon from the case.
Hearings have been scheduled until Wednesday on pretrial motions. The prosecution request to be argued next month asks the judge to allow evidence that Jackson had allegedly committed sex crimes over the years that went uncharged, such as a 1993 molestation alleged in a lawsuit that was settled out of court.
Prosecutors said in their filing that the evidence will demonstrate Jackson's "propensity" for such crimes, his motive and intent, and show how he "created the opportunities to achieve his goal."
Esto es un poco lo que se ha dicho con alguna cosilla añadida.

Habrá que recordar que los que piden el retraso son la defensa, y aun cuando ni Michael ni ellos están felices con eso es lo mejor considerando la cantidad de documentos que tienen que revisar, a mi me preocupa mucho más que se llegue el juicio y ellos aun revisando los documentos que esperar lo que se tenga que esperar pero que lleguen lo mejor preparados para defender a Michael.
Yo creo que hoy las cosas saldran así:
Mocion para evidencias del caso 93 - Denegada
Mocion para retrasar el juicio - Denegada
Mocion para quitar todos los cargos - Denagada
jejejeje
me uno!!!!

me siento soberanamente,repudiador!!:qmal:
Estoy ahora mismo en Firenze, rodeado de gente a la que amo, y respeta a Michael , en unos días vendrá Anthony Minghela a ofrecernos un seminario exquisito acerca de su cine, y las formas de autoproducir cine: y lamento muy en serio que el mundo esté rematadamente "cuerdo". espero que tengamos suerte .
Desde tan lejos, tan cerca, todos,todos los dái sigo todas vuestras opiniones, ya era hora de entrar...................aunque tengo mucho frío:mareao:
Os mando a todos un besazo enorme, pasarlo medianamente bien, y que la tristeza no cunda tatísimo estos días.
Sublimar el mundo,es el único comedido,relajaos y "respirar aún sin motivo para la esperanza".
