Takeaway from court so far? Lisi's lawyer: we don't know how Lisi found out about crack video. And Crown: police still investigating

Interesting: Crown tells judge it's difficult to know size and scope of alleged crack video extortion at this time

I wonder if they tried asking him?

She is a crime reporter for CTV.

And the "what" could just be the contents in general, not anything specific. They're arguing that the whole thing is in the public interest, so the whole thing should be public...and it's unconscionable that it's not.

I think the board is having a stroke.

I'm just catching up now because this page wouldn't load most of the afternoon. Had serious withdrawal. Seeing those pictures of Ford dancing with Nunziata, I have an idea what he'll do when this is all over. Dancing With The Stars, of course!!

Sorry, Dubster, back to the real thread....

So Dennis Morris just showed up to City Hall and was asking reporters if they knew whether Rob was in or not. This is comical. First of all, how many mayors have their criminal lawyers at City Hall everyday? And secondly what kind of criminal lawyer has to ask reporters where their client is? Oh, btw robbie strolled in at 2:45 today.

For the times when you don't need a criminal lawyer, you need a "criminal" lawyer.

Better call him

Didn't crown counsel offer to release the wiretap transcript summaries if the media agreed to hold off on publishing them for 30 days? Sounds to me like they've got something on the burner.

It seems to me like Bill Blair was trying to pressure the mayor to resign, so they wouldn't have to arrest a sitting mayor. As it is, Ford's dug his heels in, so it looks like they're going to do things the hard way.

It'll be interesting either way!

Ding, ding, we have a winner!

I was able to grab a recent few images from Valerio Mosca's twitter feed before he deleted the whole thing. I sent these to the NP and they posted the exchange involving the porn star, but not the others, probably because I couldn't provide the necessary context. I wish I had grabbed more, but I wasn't anticipating things get removed.

The photo of Nikki Benz (the blonde in the first pic) was taken last Monday. It was deleted shortly after I saved it, about a half hour before the entire account was removed. There were lots of tweets propositioning porn stars and pictures posted during encounters with them.

Edit: double post.

In the pre-come to Jesus period of Ford's life I am sure he would jump at the chance to party with a porn star. But now? Maybe not.

Also, comparing Dennis Morris to Saul Goodman is silly. One of them was a great and talented lawyer and the other uses hotmail.
