This is an interesting twist in the Carona legacy...
Ex-OC sheriff's lover to get own corruption trial - Yahoo! News Wed Dec 3, 12:36 am ET SANTA ANA, Calif. – A judge has ruled that the mistress of a former Southern California sheriff will be tried separately for an alleged scheme to exploit his power of office for money. U.S. District Judge Andrew Guilford declared a mistrial for Debra Hoffman on Tuesday. He says she will no longer be tried with former Orange County Sheriff Michael Carona, who was indicted last year on public corruption charges. Prosecutors allege that Carona, Hoffman, Carona's wife and a close group of friends accepted hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes and kickbacks over several years. Hoffman has pleaded not guilty to conspiracy, mail fraud and bankruptcy fraud charges.

I've already heard speculation that there may be a motion for a mistrial, based on the fact that her Attorney has "potentially tainted the jury, by her cross examination". Gotta love it.

Yeah throwing him under the bus. Seems from incompetence more than anything. What good is it for him to have a high priced attorney when HER attorney is undermining you along the way?
