Did Vandenburg retrial produce a witness who testified an attorney suborned perjury

Quick Vanderbilt Sport-bro gang rape, update.

First covered the Vanderbilt Sports-bros, gang rape trial here. Brandon’s friends went nuts the next day, here.  That post scored 10,000 hits.

We also focused on Albert Perez, earlier.

Today’s big surprise

Albert Perez, Jr.

Once again, Albert Perez got our attention.  While following today’s testimony, via the excellent Twitter coverage of Stacey Barchenger, we discovered how California witness Joey Quinzio, revealed in court that Vandenburg family friend and criminal defense attorney, Albert Perez, Jr., seemingly acted in a way to suborn perjury, in Stacey’s follow up for the Tennessean.

Seems a safe bet the “unnamed attorney” was none other than Albert Perez, Jr as Perez is friend of the family and Brandon’s criminal defense attorney. Perez’s daughter is pictured here, with Brandon’s father, Rod during the reading of the verdict in the first trial.  As this link demonstrates, Rod taught Brandon how to charm women for his own purposes.

We contacted the California State Bar on this.  Here is their view on the “Duty of Candor”

State Bar officials asked for more information, which will be provided. For readers, consider,
