(pg 9-10) Most remarkably, however, Mr. Auchincloss threatens the defense in the second full paragraph of page 6. He says, in essence, that, if we attempt to impeach Mr. Sneddon or if we even comment on the prosecution's motivation, he will release "everything [Mr. Sneddon] knows about the defendant." There are three answering to this: First, we will be renewing our motion to recuse the District Attorney. Clearly, the personal bias has extended from Mr. Sneddon to his deputy, Mr. Auchincloss. Mr. Auchincloss' response to legitimate concerns of the defense -- is Mr. Sneddon biased and, whether or not he is biased, how can a prosecution overlook so much evidence -- is to attempt to extort the defense into withdrawing such legitimate evidence form the jury. Mr. Auchincloss' litany of things he will do so that "[t]he defense does not want to go there"' are clearly inadmissible and bullying. The undersigned is aware that the defense made a motion to recuse which was denied, however, it would be malpractice to not renew the motion based on this clear evidence of vindictive behavior by one of Mr. Sneddon's deputies.
