Attorneys for three men indicted by a Maryland grand jury investigating the drug-induced death of Len Bias are seeking to have charges against their clients dismissed.

Thomas Morrow, who represents Brian Tribble, a friend of Bias, said that investigators coerced witnesses and that the extensive publicity allowed during the investigation was in breach of grand jury proceedings.

Alan Goldstein, an attorney for Terry Long and David Gregg, teammates of Bias who were indicted along with Tribble, said he is also asking for the dismissal of their indictments, largely because of actions by Arthur Marshall, Prince George’s County prosecutor.

Tribble was indicted on four drug counts and is accused of supplying the cocaine that killed Bias June 19. Tribble pleaded innocent to the charges. Long and Gregg were indicted on charges of cocaine possession and obstruction of justice. They have not yet entered pleas.
