29. They often suppress evidence of priors since they want a jury

to consider the case before them, only. So brace yourselves for that one. As for suppressing physical evidence, the judge will likely tell them to go pound sand. As for the statements he made to the cops, that can be iffy territory.

If he was fully shackled in court, it's likely he's been misbehaving in jail. Even in preliminary hearings, defense attorneys generally like to present these bastards as the soul of innocence and upstanding members of the upper middle class.

I hope Guzy's guy manages to talk his client into pleading down to manslaughter. That would keep him in a cage until he's too old to remember which end of a gun the bullet comes out of and public safety will be served.

I'm just sorry you have to go through this. Been there.
