Notable Quotes 2
Most troubling is that he tells me that the legal work he had out when he was removed from the cell has not been returned to him. This included documents prepared for him by my office which contained substantial and sensitive work product that falls squarely within the attorney client privilege.
Can you please take steps to see to that all of this material be returned to him immediately.
