DA Asks Court to Stop OJ Co-Defendent’s Appeal
O.J. Simpson’s co-defendent was convicted in a fair trail, and was not a victim of “spillover prejudice” as he alleges in his appeal, prosecution said. David Roger, District Attorney for Clark County, said “A defendant ‘is not entitled to a perfect trial, but only a fair trial,” citing federal and state case law supporting his position. The appeal relates to the conviction of Clarence “C.J.” Stewart, who was arrested for his role in an armed robbery at a hotel in 2007.
Stewart’s lawyer, Brent Bryson, has not yet commented. He does, however, still have a chance to respond to the prosecution’s forty-six page report
