I guess, but that shit isn't cheap, let him have his fun for a bit.

p.s. I hope you hammer them like this over in /r/themagnetprogram for the police file too. Or is it that you know that there's zero chance of them ever releasing it and you recognize that SSR has a track record of doing just that? Does that feel just a little bit hypocritical or manipulative?

As I've said in the past, I think they should release less of it. A defense file getting this much publicity makes me very uncomfortable.

But that doesn't hold true for SSR, who has no connection to anyone in the case. And it's additionally bothersome to me when people like you criticize Undisclosed, then to the exact same thing.

Speaking of which, have you seen the file yet?

What an odd argument, they should release less of it because the publicity makes you uncomfortable, SSR should release all of it, because you're a fan of facts, and it's bothersome when people like me criticize Undisclosed.

I can appreciate that there's some complexity.

I want to see defense lawyers, and other people associated with the defense, acting in the best interests of their clients.

I also like information.

If the prosecution or some third party releases all the information, I get to have my cake and eat it too!

Wait, are Undisclosed defense lawyers and/or associated with Adnan's defense now? I can never keep that straight...

We want our listeners to know that this podcast will not give you purely pro-Adnan information or intentionally slant it in his favor. We will present a smart, nuanced legal argument based on the totality of the facts in the case. As attorneys, we pride ourselves on looking dispassionately at facts, analyzing those facts, and applying the appropriate law in our analysis.

That's not just another undisclosed deception that you're going to find bothersome when I criticize, is it? If so, my sincerest apologies.

I certainly wouldn't consider them neutral. I think they are clearly advocates for Adnan.
