PCR Exhibits - Alaska State of Corruption

Fitzgerald: I – I don't know how to answer that sir – I – that's what not what I intended to say.
Metzger: There's no question.
Haeg: Ok – in your opinion if you advocate for your client – excuse me – are you making an
enemy out of the Prosecutor
Fitzgerald: It depends on the circumstances.
Haeg: (exhales) I told you the circumstances. I'll repeat them again. Your client gave a 5 hour
interview to the State, gave the State maps, gave up a whole years income not for just the client
but also the clients wife most peoples arithmetic that's two years income, then for the Rule 11
Agreement you fly people in from around the country from Illinois, from a remote lodge Silver
Salmon Creek, take kids out of school, people away from work, drive up here to comply with the
Rule 11 Agreement and then the Prosecutor breaks it by filing harsher charges because I believe
he -uh- changed his mind. Wasn't even a mistake just changed his mind – didn't make a mistake.
And your attorney can't ask for the Rule 11 Agreement to be honored because that would oh
make an enemy out of the Prosecutor. Is that what you're telling me
Fitzgerald: I think sir I described my answer to the best of my ability. I've described the – what I
believe to be the appropriate steps.
Haeg: Ok.
Fitzgerald: I don't know that I can make it any clearer.
Haeg: Ok. Have you ever heard of a term called detrimental reliance
Fitzgerald: Yes.
Haeg: Can you describe it to me
Fitzgerald: The term typically is used in the civil context in which somebody makes a
representation, you take certain action based on that representation, and then for lack of a better
description they pull the rug out from underneath you. Under certain circumstances you – you
can -uh- obtain relief from the Court for that kind of detrimental reliance.
Haeg: Does that ever apply to criminal cases
Fitzgerald: I think it's very – I think it's very infrequent that – that – that concept would be one
that would be find favor in – in the criminal justice system.
Haeg: How come I've been able to find hundreds of cases of it then
