Hard 7: Prosecutor Douglas’s Sixth Sense

This week’s column pokes fun at the possibility Kootenai County Prosecutor Bill Douglas consulted a dead attorney for advice on a case—but then details some potential advantages of the practice. And (Thursday night) comes word via Huckleberries Online that Douglas has filed his promised correction to the record: “Rather than ‘driving it by Glen Harmon,’ Douglas explained, he’d in all likelihood said ‘writing by Glen Harmon’ and been misunderstood by the transcriber. Douglas: ‘At the time I made this statement I had full knowledge that Mr. Harmon was deceased, and in no way was my testimony meant to represent that I had communicated with Mr. Harmon about any issue relative to this case.’” Mr. Harmon was unavailable for comment/ Frank Sennett , Hard 7.

Question: Does Prosecutor Douglas have a reasonable explanation for the snafu in his recorded deposition?
