The unholy alliance between jailers and prosecutors have scorched right and wrong again. It was revealed that the jailers of Casey Anthony have been video taping the private meetings and conversations of Casey and her attorney inside the jail! They are taking the sacred American position that attorney/client relationship is private and throwing it out the window.

In an unbelievable and never before seen stance, Orlando and the powers that be are claiming that it is okay to film the private meetings of a person accused of a crime and their attorney. Claiming only audio and not video is protected. Is there anymore proof that Orlando has lost their right to try this case? My God, this is so over the line it is scary. Defense lawyers everywhere are blown away by this disgusting trick. Could you imagine what that means to us, the people, when we are charged with a crime we might have or might not have done? Lawyers everywhere were showing up on TV with thirty years of experience claiming in their whole careers they’ve never seen anything like that.

Americans have grown up with the understanding that the relationship between our doctors, lawyers and priests are sacred and protected. Now Orange County wants to splice the law and hold on to some technicality that would undermine our own understanding of a right to a fair trial. Gov. Charlie Crist and the Attorney Generals office needs to step in and put an end to this immediately. Orange County and their power structure are running wild and out of control.

Not even the biggest Casey hater could ever agree with any of this. To tape people and their lawyers is so far off the scale of right and wrong that something needs to be done here. To claim video is okay and only audio is protected, sounds like something out of the old Soviet Union and not anything American. Lord, what does this stance mean to deaf people who uses sign language? Just the body language alone between client and lawyer could be a form of communication that should be protected. If it wasn’t protected, it would be up for interpretation.

Could you imagine the government taping the meeting between a defendant and their lawyer and hiring a body language expert to claim one thing or another? The whole thing is mind boggling and so wrong that people can see now what is going on in Orlando. This cannot stand. For we the people, this is a direct assault on our freedom and liberty. Stay silent on this one and you deserve the kind of government that is headed your way.
