I am not sure where the witnesses are.  I believe Cpl Quinn and the Agent
are in the DC Metro area.  The audio, I believe, is a critical piece of
evidence for you to consider.  We have a transcript but based on my reading
of that transcript, I believe it will be beneficial to hear the tone,
emotion and volume of the conversation.  I have not heard it.  I will do so
as soon as I get a copy of the audio CD.

Where are these witnesses, and does the government contest their relevance
or that their testimony would be cumulative?  Having not read the
investiation yet, I'm at a disadvantage as to what these witnesses might
testify.

The second part of Mr. Faraj's email is a discovery request not necessarily
germane to the 32, and beyond the power of the IO to require, unless the DC
maintains that the actual audio (vice the transcript) is necessary to
prepare adequately for the 32 (vice trial, if there is a trial).

Capt Hoover,
We'll get a witness request to you but I wanted to give you a warning order
so that you can have plenty of time coordinating witnesses. We will also
want Cpl Quinn and LT Klay's husband. I also request that the case Agent be
produced.

I request a copy of the actual audio
