I didn’t get a sense this was Brady, the article mentioned phone records and other materials. I think this is stuff that should’ve have been turned over years ago but wasn’t. The fact it was done mid trial probably led to the dismissal, as at that point you have double jeopardy concerns and a plethora of other appealable issues. I think this was the discovery reform at play, but a situation where the DAs office didn’t have a rebuttal argument to make. 2 weeks into trial on a 4/5 year old indictment is very late to be turning things over.
