Tale of the Tape(d Transcript)

From the 7-12-07 Times Free Press story about Ward Crutchfield's decision to stop lying, which our legal system calls 'change of plea':

"Defense attorneys have been trying to exclude a transcript of a recorded telephone conversation from March 2005 in which Sen. Crutchfield and Mr. [Can't Get No] Love discuss local politics, including the then mayoral race."

I'm telling you, you overhear something at City Hall and you can take that sh*t to the bank: know what I'm sayin?

Insiders from the Littlefield campaign have come out of the woodwork lately with all kinds of accusations, all of which I'd love to share, but so far I don't have the kind of confirmation that I'm comfortable with. Which may seem ridiculous from a blog like this one, but at my end I know what I write is solid based on my relationship with my sources. These new relationships don't meet that baseline. Yet. I mean, come on, these people worked for Ron Littlefield, a man known far and wide as the Worst Mayor Ever. Clearly, they've had some judgement issues! But I believe that people can grow and recognize their mistakes, otherwise I'd have no hope at all for a new mayor in Spring of '09.

Nevertheless, these former Littlefielders all say that Ward Crutchfield, now guilty of Federal crimes, was in constant, daily contact with Ron Littlefield and his campaign, as was convicted felon William Cotton. I don't think that's the sewage from Moccasin Bend that I'm smelling, but it does smell fishy.

I've got questions about Ward's plea, the most important one is: since he changed his plea to guilty (TM Morrissey), there'll be no trial. Since there'll be no trial, will we ever see this transcript that Sher and Lazenby refer to in their story? Please let that be entered into the public record. I think a whole lot of questions might be answered when that happens.

Does anyone know if Federal evidence becomes public after a plea, or has Cheney put all that into the 'man-size' safe in his office? [Sorry, corrupt politicians at every level just have me sick to my stomach today.]
