There is no doubt the “Federal Proffer” between the USAO and ATF Agent Brian Higgins came as a result of lengthy negotiations between Levy and Higgins’ attorney, who is a former federal prosecutor from the same office in Boston. 😉 David Yannetti @BostonDefender took full advantage of a well played move yesterday by forcing the judge to make his argument orally. And she gave him the green light to do so. He is 2 for 2 with that move. Yannetti purposefully loaded up on Higgins and his bad acts to set the stage for Morrissey to either continue with this corrupt case or concede and dismiss this case against Read with prejudice. The mere mention of Higgins’ Federal Proffer was a direct message to Brian Albert, the other McAlberts and their attorneys. I’m sure Reddington has made calls already on behalf of Jen McCabe. She maybe a “soccer mom” but she is on the hook for the murder of John O’Keefe just as much as the “person(s)” who brutally beat John to a pulp. Now one needs to wonder about S Levinson and J Nagel. They were one of the last to leave the residence. Caitlyn Albert as well. What happens to them? As I said many times in the past, “it only takes one” this is exactly what I was referring to. Now is the time we will all see the “Domino Effect.” In the scheme of things, Higgins is the perfect “weak link” for any federal prosecutor. Higgins has the ability to cripple all of his co-conspirators as well as the prosecution team including the Mass State Police. Federal conspiracy investigations are the bread and butter for all Federal Agents. It’s the easiest crime to prove if done correctly. It’s highly doubtful Higgins will escape jail time, but at least his cooperation will allow the Federal Judge who will eventually hear this case at some point, depart from the mandatory federal sentencing guidelines via a Rule 35. Without “substantial cooperation,” a judge is mandated to sentence each defendant at the higher guidelines for each charge. There is no doubt, based on the heinous manner in which John was savagely murdered, all defendants that will eventually be indicted in this federal investigation will be sentenced at the highest end of the guidelines. “2 days and a Wake Up” @TedDanielnews @DanaKennedyLive @HowieCarrShow @VinniePolitan @shelleymurph @ChiefRafferty @CoffindafferFBI
@Leopardo8 @BostonDefender Does the proffer cover murder too?
So here is the problem I see with this, assuming Yanetti meant what he said, that a proffer document was included in the doc dump. If Higgins flipped, he would have plead to something given the testimony that BA and he were together. There is no way he walks with nothing, especially if Levy is tying his investigation’s jurisdiction to his involvement. So the proffer doc would have been replaced and superseded by a plea agreement had he plead out. That it wasn’t suggests a deal wasn’t reached. Meaning Higgins tried to flip but for some reason it didn’t happen. Did he lie in his proffer? Did he fail to offer up other info when asked?
@Leopardo8 @BostonDefender Beautiful ending to this tragedy
@Leopardo8 @BostonDefender The word “proffer” being uttered was the ultimate shot across every bow - Albert, Proctor, Lally, McCabe, and even Cannone. It was a mic drop moment which signaled that this is all effectively over.
@Leopardo8 @BostonDefender CW might have a busy weekend, w/ memory surges from Jan 29 & Changing statements! Witnesses should do it now before they are on the stand being crossed
@Leopardo8 @BostonDefender One of your best Sean !
@Leopardo8 @BostonDefender Where was Mr. Read today ?
@Leopardo8 @BostonDefender "Federal conspiracy investigations are the bread and butter for all Federal Agents. It’s the easiest crime to prove if done correctly. " That's why Yannetti made sure to mention they all met that day after JO was found at the "friends & family" meeting
@Leopardo8 @BostonDefender I thoroughly enjoy reading your comments and how you pose them with your 40 years of Experience. Very meaningful.
