Yeah, statements like this will get the charges dropped (http://www.examiner.com/a-1052073~Barry_Bonds_indicted.html?LFS=y)
Defense attorney Mike Rains said he spoke briefly with Bonds but did not describe his reaction. At an evening news conference, he read a statement accusing federal prosecutors of "unethical misconduct" and declined to take questions.
"Every American should worry about a Justice Department that doesn't know if waterboarding is torture and can't tell the difference between prosecution on the one hand and persecution on the other," Rains said.
Mr. Raines hasn't been sufficiently b*tch-slapped to realize that criticizing federal prosecutors will not bode well for his clients.
This will get good.
