I'm NOT a lawyer, but I was wondering.... Furhman would have to testify IF he were still a policeman, but because the GOVERNMENT allowed him to retire in disgrace, he can invoke the fifth amendment and avoid having to tell the jury that he planted evidence. The jury can't even be told that he refuses to testify. Seems that this is a clear case of the GOVERNMENT unethically (if not illegally) manipulating the rules of the system to railroad an innocent man. If Judge Ito actually cares about justice (he says he does, but his rulings indicate otherwise), why doesn'y he simply order Furhman back onto active duty so that he will be required to testify?
