Still Searching For That Elusive Chicago Criminal Defense Blogger

July 15, 2009 By Mark Draughn 1 Comment

With regard to the issue of giving credit for discovering the "Sotomeyor & Associates" issue, Eric Turkewitz comments: Something might be in the public domain, but it if is buried in a box of other documents, someone still has to go find it. Whether this qualifies as that proverbial box of documents is, of course, another question. I have to assume that, given the high … [Read more...] about Why Eric Turkewitz Still Matters
