According to the court filing, one witness told defense attorneys she felt harassed by a lead detective working with the prosecution after she declined to be "prepped" for testimony and asked that questions be submitted in writing. The motion alleges the detective warned the witness she could be arrested and jailed if she did not cooperate.
Defense attorneys described the conduct as "blatant witness intimidation."
