More on the videotape: March 1, 2006 piny Scott at Lawyers, Guns, and Money has more on the videotape case, and he links to a post by iocaste with a different take on the conflict between “vigorous defense” and “you want this woman to do what?!”
I just read via Shakespeare’s Sister that the judge has backed off on his ridiculous decision. However, the unrelated case is still referenced in the original story.
