Magnolia,
Judge Bramlette said in open court that Robert Arledge was one of many in the illegal conspiracy. The special prosecutors said that Robert Arledge was not the head person in the conspiracy. Roe Frazier left the practice of law, because of it. That left Dennis Sweet, Shane Langston, Michael Gallagher, and Richard Schwartz. Arledge, the paralegal, and 18 of Schwartz’s clients pled. Dun Lampton just doesnt want to go after them.

Hot Rod,
Bingo. I believe Lampton will get it done.
There could be another name or two in with your list, but I’m too uncertain to say.

I heard the rumor that the Sheriff doesn’t trust the DA, due to Robert smith, Melton and Ed Peters having sealed indictments for jury tampering at the last Melton trial? Anyone else here this? I know that the ex chief has been in front of a grand jury? is Dunn Lampton scared to do anything? or is this going to go the way of Phen fen ?

Frank has some serious street power/influence. I hear people are turning down requests to testify against him left and right (unrelated to this) due to the fear factor.

This police officer’s murder went unsolved for years before an arrest was made. I remember seeing his widow and young son on tv begging people to come forward if they had information. I truly hope it is not the case that public officials knew details of this murder and did not report it to authorities.

BCHAN, I think the implication is that Melton’s “Show me you don’t have anything to do with him any more” could be taken as a suggestion to carry out a hit. I admit that is a stretch, but I think that is what the informant meant to convey.
