Someone asked me today if Tim Russell stepped in it at his court hearing today.

I replied that he might as well roll up his pants, it's too late to save his shoes.

Today was his last chance to save his bacon from the fire. If he was going to take a plea bargain, this was his last chance.

And that was in spite of the fact that he filed motions to have the DA's office disqualified based on smear piece by Media Trackers and that the case should be dismissed because he chose an unethical attorney.

As for the latter motion, Russell was contending that because his previous attorney, Dennis Krueger, had taken a job as a prosecutor in Fond du Lac County, the case should be dismissed. Judge David Hansher pointed out that it was an ethical issue and not a legal one, so it did not rise to the level where the case should be dismissed. Expect this to be one of the grounds used as a basis to appeal after Russell is convicted.
