He must feel interminable delays are in his favor. Maybe Brown hopes to eventually wear the District Attorney's office down to a plea bargain to time served.<br /><br />This is just speculation on my part.

He has agreed to delay after delay after delay for the last four years. <br /><br />In my opinion, from what I've observed of the second trial and pretrial hearings in this case, I don't think Brown is "frustrated with incessant trial delays."<br /><br />At any time, during any court proceeding in the last four years, if he was frustrated with the delays, he could have demanded his trial within 60 days.Sprockethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03837416113512618694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6757696342634699253.post-55621104428836094802013-09-20T21:01:59.401-07:002013-09-20T21:01:59.401-07:00It is NEVER in a client's best interests for t...It is NEVER in a client's best interests for the client to go "pro per." Many defendant (ironically, generally the less intelligent/educated/sophisticated defendants) get frustrated with incessant trial delays and convince themselves that things would be better if they were COMPLETELY in charge, but mostly that means a quicker conviction and a more serious penalty/sentence.Katprintnoreply@blogger.com
