He will be prosecuting this case.

I'm here to make three points, and then I will not be taking questions afterwards.

In our criminal justice system, every defendant is entitled to a lawyer who will zealously represent their interests and do so effectively.

Thank you very much.

Absolutely.

And that's a common sense reaction.

You would think that family members, siblings, that they're not going to support the person that allegedly murdered their parents.

But I do go back to the access that Alan Jackson got to the home.

And it was maybe like on a Tuesday or something after the crime, right after the LAPD forensics left.

He walks in and I think it might have been a Reiner assistant that opens the gate.

So who allowed that?

There was no court order for it that the defense could have received.

It was pre-arraignment access to that home.

I mean, I suppose as an occupant, but then the other people could have just said, no, we're not, we're just not letting you in.

And it would be then a civil matter.

The police aren't going to intervene with that.

You'd have to get a court order.

Yeah, it's really remarkable how he got in there.

And then back to, I mean, the Sunday evening before he got arrested, he goes into the convenience store and he buys Gatorade.

So obviously he knew the difference between right and wrong.
