Re: Incarceration

First, attorney's who are employed by a public defender's office are "real" lawyers. Most are highly experienced and all are respected members of the bar. Second, an examining trial is basically an opportunity to attack probable cause elements of the case.

However, a witness should be sufficient to establish PC. Your husband should consut with his attorney about the mechanisms for obtaining evidence from third parties.
