[FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serfi][FONT=arial, helvetica, sans-serfi]Joel Brodsky is reportedly on his way to Joliet to demand Drew Peterson's release from jail. He's basing his demand for Peterson's release on Rule 315(a) of state rules.
3) Release of Defendant Pending Appeal. A defendant shall not be held in jail or to bail during the pendency of an appeal by the State, or of a petition or appeal by the State under Rule 315(a), unless there are compelling reasons for his continued detention or being held to bail.
