Judge Policandriotes denies Peterson’s request to lower bond
Brodsky et al filing an appeal based on the relevance of the statements made in regards to Stacy Peterson.
At trial he is counting that evidence under the “Drew Peterson” hearsay law will not be permitted as far as Constitutionality and that it can’t be applied retrospectively. Problem being some of the documents are circulating the blogosphere and the Chicago newspapers.
Official statement:
We’re disappointed that the motion to reduce bond was denied. We feel the state’s attorney made references during the hearing that were irrelevant to the case, such as statements made in regard to Stacy Peterson. These statements had nothing to do with the case involving the death of Kathleen Savio.
We will immediately appeal this decision to the Illinois Appellate Court. Appeals of motions to deny bond are heard in an expedited fashion. We are confident the appellate court will reduce the $20-million bond to a reasonable level. We expect to have the appeal on file by the end of next week.
