rob keppleDP Motion to Disclose Reasons for Seeking Death
Many of you have seen this motion before -- a defense motion that attempts to force the prosecutor to testify concerning the decision to seek death.
If you have handled one of these, please call the CDA in Brazoria County, Jeri Yenne, 979-864-1230 and discuss it with her...
Thanks, rob

Adrienne McFarland and Steven Todd at the AG's knew just how to handle one of those motions in a capital trial in our county last year. They pretty much impressed everyone who saw the trial with their competency and effectiveness.
They're nice folks, and I know they'd be glad to talk them through it.
What would a State's motion for defense to disclose mitigating circumstances look like?
