Motion to Compel Reciprocal Discovery - What is the Defense Trying to Hide??

I respectfully disagree. The defense said in an motion that the police used his tape against him to get him to recant. So, that could easily be cleared up with deposition. I think it needs to be done to clear it up. IMO

How did they use it against him? He brought it to their attention himself. They told him he would likely suffer legal consequences for making the recording.

They can depose him but it will just confirm to the defense that he will be of no use on the stand. He'll stick with the story he gave investigators.

wasn't he the one that was supposed to be a witness but never showed??????

NTS, thank you for providing a link to the motion your referenced...but this is just a Motion with a Memorandum of Law in support of said motion. The two exhibits, the JJ and LB statements are provided as part of the memorandum. This is not discovery and would not and is not recognized by the Court as such. I understand you may believe this to be sufficient, but from legal and procedural standpoint, it is not. The defense would not even be able to use these statements at trial unless they provided it within their formal discovery responses. It is not enough that it as provided in support of a motion.

And from the subsequent interviews with JJ, he has recanted this statement, saying that at the time he made this, he was mistaken as to the location where Caylee's remains were found. He has now stated that he and the searchers he worked with and/or was in charge of....did not search the exact area where she was found. Because of his recanting, he did not appear as a defense witness at one of the more recent court appearances, and the defense is no longer pressing this issue, because JJ's testimony is no longer going to support their theory that Caylee's body was placed there after ICA was incarcerated.
