Document Swap OKd in Unabomber Case
Prosecutors in the trial of Unabomber suspect Theodore Kaczynski will give defense lawyers most of the documents they want--except the handwritten notes of federal agents who searched Kaczynski’s Montana cabin.
Among the documents that will be turned over are reports of agents’ interviews with Kaczynski’s brother, David, his mother and a number of people with whom the reclusive Kaczynski had contact while living in his cabin near Lincoln, Mont.
The U.S. attorney’s office disclosed the agreement in a brief filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court.
In return, defense attorneys Quin Denvir and Judy Clarke have agreed to give prosecutors their interviews with the same people. The defense still wants the agents’ handwritten notes and other material that they say is necessary for their case.
A hearing on the issue is scheduled Monday before U.S. Magistrate Gregory Hollows.
Kaczynski, 54, is being held in the Sacramento County Jail.
