And who was he talking to?
It seems that it wouldn't have taken much for the Defense attorney to get phone records.
Upon further review ... The two pieces I linked to made it sound like they were together at the time of the call. But, you are right. The call was made from her land line to her cell.
Why the defense lawyer didn't cry bloody murder about the phone records? I dunno'. Could be stupid. Could be he didn't want to offend the prosecutor. The fact that it was in the hands of a cop all along is damning. I don't see how this could still be happening in 2005.
