Now THAT is a speedy trial.

The Rocket Docket for sure. Will he be tried alone? Wonder if this is for both seperate indictments? I feel certain he will asked for a delay so he will be able to go to the Ole Miss bowl game. I sure he is hoping it is the Independence.

won't happen. it will get continujed. the government may be panicing along with defense counsel. its hard to put a case like that together in 33 days with a major holiday in the first 9 days. its impossible for the defense to review a truckload, literally, of documents in that span of time. Starrett isn't going to make a jury try that long of a case into the Christmas Holidays...

It could be that the original concept was for plea deals to be reached, thus having it all wrapped up and out of the press before the holidays.

However, the negotiations hit a snag and the MV WALKERsZIEGLERJANUSSHUMATE is reported to be taking on water. Again. Disaster may be postponed as there are some leftover promotional clothing items to stuff in the hole; and there could be plenty of left over bait to eat and beverages to research while waiting for a tow home by their good friends in high places.

Prominent upstanding community minded political operators who are well dressed and attend church and all the right charity functions don't go to jail very often; so perhaps something else explains why they haven't been able to reach a deal.

Satirical speculation by the uninformed has it that the inside operators wanted to be hired by the auditor's office on consulting contracts while serving their community service time. Additional speculation as to whether there were negotiations requiring that all the community service would be performed in professional office settings was an issue, or perhaps it was the billing rate for the community service?

Perhaps the next move will be for the accused to have a holiday lights boat cruise and offshore fishing derby fundraiser for some needy politicians. Possible stops at Harbor Landing or the Aquarium construction site to check out the friends and family.

Meanwhile; aren't we into the fifth month without a cause and manner of death for Abigail?

I feel certain the trail date will be pushed forward into the new year. Wonder why so much of the information about this matter is being sealed by the court at the request of the defendants? What is there that they want hidden from the public? Scott Walker will not be able to make a deal because the Feds are not interested is what I heard. He better figure out who he can offer up that they may have an interest in or get ready to get introduced to the federal penal system for a 10 year stay.
