How do you address this charge that your office failed in its handling of the case? My office asked for high cash bail, $5,000 cash that he was held on. We objected to the signature bond request that the defense attorney made. It was the judge that lowered the cash bond. And the Attorney general has attacked me for this as well. But he hired the very prosecutor at the Department of Justice that he handled this case. (44:47–44:56)
