Courtney Clenney’s Lawyer Fires Back at Prosecutor’s Demand to Be Sanctioned

Prieto has since responded to the State’s demand that he should be sanctioned, citing his own concerns. They said he to sway public opinion with “inappropriate” remarks about Obumseli.

“With the release of each piece of information by the State, the media comments on that evidence to the public. It would substantially prejudice Ms. Clenney if the defense is unable to correct any misinformation or be prevented from explaining information that is taken out of context,” Prieto wrote in his filing.

“While the prosecutor argues that counsel has been making inappropriate comments, there are real concerns regarding his inappropriate release of information and professionalism in comments to the media,” the newly filed docs stated.
