"This is probably the single most outrageous prosecution that has happened in South Florida."

That's Richard Sharpstein on the Ben Kuehne case, covered by John Pacenti here. The 11th Circuit will have oral argument this Wednesday. Judge Cooke will have Daubert hearings today and tomorrow on the government's proposed currency exchange expert.

John Pacenti also covers the Raffanello case this morning. He's the former DEA agent charged with obstruction. His lawyers had made the gutsy call to request a speedy trial, but have now dropped that motion because the government apparently gave the defense 4 million documents to review. Richard Sharpstein was added to the defense team.

I guess I should have titled the post: Sharpstein and Pacenti.

Sharpstein obviously has attended the DOM school of hyperbole.

If the DBR won't allow us to see the articles unless we are subscribers, what's the use of posting a link? It doesn't work (like my football picks this year.)

There are ways of tricking the DBR site into displaying the article. The subscription fees are just plain STUPID!
