Hi and welcome to the 10th episode of Undisclosed, the State v. Adnan Sayyad.

Today's episode is Crime Stoppers.

My name is Robbie Achaudri, and I'm an attorney and national security fellow at the New America Foundation, and I blog at Split the Moon.com.

And I'm joined, as always, with my colleague Susan Simpson and Colin Miller.

Susan is an associate at the Volkov Law Group in Washington, D.C., and she blogs at the View from L.2, and Colin is an associate dean and professor at the University of South Carolina School of

Law, and he's also the editor of the Evidence Proff blog. Now, as many of you may know, but others might

have missed, Adnan's attorney, Justin Brown, filed a supplement to their motion to reopen the

appeal today. Essentially, Justin is asking, as a matter of justice, that the judge consider the

fact that the AT&T records given to the state and which actually existed in Christina Gutierrez's

files in triplicit explicitly said that incoming calls could not be used to determine the location

of a cell phone, which, as we all know, is exactly what the state argued,

specifically with the alleged Lincoln Park pings around the 7 p.m. hour. So not only does this

information from AT&T undermine their entire case, it further points to yet another failure and point

of ineffective assistance of counsel by Christina Gutierrez. I have to give a personal shout out to Susan for catching

that fax cover sheet. And now let's see if the court agrees to allow this evidence in.

So I know it's been a long wait for our listeners since last week when I first mentioned

that we had something big to talk about in this episode.

Something we had been working on for a while now to verify, we did a lot of digging, and finally managed to figure out a piece of this case that has been totally missing until now, a piece

that explains so much about how this investigation happened, and a piece that, along with the

new filing today by Justin, makes us a really bad week for the state of Maryland.

Just briefly, though, before we get to the heart of the matter, a quick reminder about how Brady violations operate in the law.

Because if what we reveal in today's episode isn't Brady material, nothing is.
