I thought she was great, but I leave it completely to your discretion. I am happy for all the help I can get. You kind of know the lay of the land on the case, and I think we will get either Judge Middlebrooks, Judge Marra, or Judge Hurley. Tenacity, patience, and an ability to work with troubled young women will be key.

Thanks.

I just got off the phone with Jeff. I wanted to discuss my options with him a bit. I plan to assign it in the morning, and I will do whatever I can to get the TA down there for the meeting Friday. Do you have a preference for given your experience with her? She does know the area well. Thanks. Drew

Hi Drew – I hear that you are coming into the fray. I haven’t heard from your office yet about a meeting. I just wanted to remind you that Braden and I talked about the case a few times and she was a great help.

I am hoping to get all the evidence back from tomorrow, so I will have everything back up here in West Palm by Friday morning. I am meeting with the agents and group supervisor on Friday afternoon for a strategy session. Any chance my CEOS colleague can participate? At least by phone?
