Federal Court, he thought he knew what the hell he was doing, he<br />

screwed the thing up, he never summoned the witnesses the client<br />

wanted, he never did this, never did that. We went all the way<br />

to the 9 th Circuit Court <strong>of</strong> Appeals, they laughed at us it was in<br />

Ineffective Assistance they said.<br />

MR. HAEG: Yep.<br />

MR. OSTERMAN: Ok? So again -you know- these – these are<br />

situations where witnesses weren't called, evidence wasn't<br />

presented, issues weren't raised, -you know- nobody took finger<br />

prints, nobody did this, nobody did that -you know- and <strong>of</strong><br />

course they're saying well -you know- he didn't take<br />

fingerprints and then Judges say well fingerprints don't prove<br />

anything in fact most fingerprint evidence is not admissible.<br />

Most fingerprints never taken never show anything -you know- so<br />

why would fingerprints be an important issue well at least he<br />

did something.<br />

MR. HAEG: Yep.<br />

MR. OSTERMAN: Somebody else's fingerprints showed up on this gun<br />

then it sure wasn't his.<br />

MR. HAEG: Yeah.<br />

MR. OSTERMAN: See what I mean.<br />

MR. HAEG: I see but I have to make the attempt because I have –<br />

I'm too far down the road to not make the attempt and I know<br />

that if -um- we do it if Brent Cole is found Ineffective<br />

Assistance or -you know- even Chuck – and I – I actually – -you<br />
