3rd attorney wants off Auburn tree-poisoning case <—- Anniston Star/Associated Press Story
Bwahahahahaha! Really? What Alabama attorney would WANT to defend Harvey Updyke Jr, accused tree poisoner of the Toomer’s Corner oak trees?
The first two attorneys withdrew citing conflicts…association or family association with Auburn. This third attorney cites an “irreconcilable conflict” between him and the defendant.
Bwahahahahahaha!!!!!
Truly, what are the chances that ANY attorney in the state of Alabama wouldn’t have SOME connection or conflict in this case? Everyone I know has SOME kind of connection to UA, AU, or both.
Now, I’m REALLY interested to see how many court appointed attorneys it takes before finding one who can stomach representing this guy. Anyone taking any bets?
