Oh really? That's an extraordinary claim: care to provide any evidence? Otherwise, I call BS.

I don't know the exact state of affairs right now, but this should be enough to get the gist of what's been going on.

Sorry for the formatting.

Please respond substantively or not at all.

Literally anything we haven’t seen is “possibly exculpatory”, isn’t it?

Imagine that you were waved into the building by guards, and have been under 23 hour/day lockdown in prison awaiting trial for 9 months, and the government is refusing to release video you say would support your claim. The state is apparently using video evidence to prosecute you, but your lawyer can't get other parts of the same body of video evidence.

>> Imagine that you were waved into the building by guards

no one was waved in, there's plenty of video of people breaking windows and through doors to get in

Begging the question. Defendants say they were waved in, government is withholding video evidence that may support their claim. Hopefully you agree that no valid conviction could be obtained under such circumstances.

Do the defendants have any of their own video evidence to back that up? If this hand-waving were such a big issue, surely someone would have recorded it, even if only by accident.
