    There is no goddamned way UHC doesn’t pressure the prosecutor to drop this to avoid that recording going public because half the jury will be left with the same sentiment when they hear it. And when it is public they will have a lot more to deal with.

    If this woman’s lawyers are smart they call the bluff and say “why yes, let’s get this out into trial, use discovery to add context, and play that recording”. There’s law, justice, but the most important thing sometimes when the moment is right is perception.
