D.A. turns attention to passengers in Lynch's SUV

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) - After getting little out of a meeting with Marshawn Lynch's attorney on Monday, prosecutors are turning their attention to the passengers - some of them possibly Buffalo Bills players - inside the running back's vehicle during a hit-and-run accident.
And Erie County District Attorney Frank Clark didn't rule out impaneling a grand jury to compel those passengers to testify who was driving Lynch's 2008 Porsche SUV early May 31, when it sped off after it struck and injured a female pedestrian.
"There were a number of people that were with him that night," Clark said. "How quickly we get to the bottom of this will depend on how cooperative people are. ... Whether it takes me a day, a week or a month, it'll get resolved."

WTF.

Why is he not giving up any information? GUilty or not at this point, he's doing a good job of giving himself some solid self-character mutilation.

more from the story (should be on Yahoo soon) ....

Clark said Caffery opened the meeting asking for certain preconditions before speaking on behalf of his client. Clark refused.
"That's not the way it plays out," Clark said. "You don't make a the deal and then get the information."
Clark said the meeting concluded when Caffery said it was "in his client's best interest not to say anything."

I hope this thing gets resolved soon, the longer it hangs over the team's head the bigger a distraction it will be. Guilty or not, Lynch just needs to do whats best for the entire team at this point!

DA's don't like being told "NO".

If he has to, he will dismantle this team to get the truth.

Or the statue of limitations will run out.

Apparently the DA has no real evidence that Marshawn was the driver. Maybe he should have used his brain before running to the media and making a circus out of this.

Apparently you don't know Frank Clark, the P.T. Barnum of D.A.'s.

Or statute of limitations.

Not likely. The statute of limitations on a misdemeanor is two years, and it is satisfied by the simple filing of the misdemeanor complaint by law enforcement. That will occur shortly--the DA is not going to lose momentum on this one.

Or stachute of limitations.

It is "statute" of limitations. "Statute" is another word for "law."

This is going to be one fat, long distraction unless Marshawn comes clean and pleads it out.
