Notice how the SDTX claimed these policies were "work product" and they were against an open file policy. They also emphasize that a "request" starts the ball rolling even though Kyle requires items to be turned over with or without a request. Gamesmanship is promoted by suggesting how late materials can be turned over instead of adopting a policy of turning over materials as soon as practicable. Embarrassing documents. No wonder they resisted turning them over under the FOIA.
Talking about prosecutors, the DA here in Hidalgo County, I suppose I can consider him a friend(?)(though I disagree with some of his practices), his office does not maintain a Brady list. I made a request for it, and one of his Assistant DA's said they don't maintain one. I'm preparing my reply, but I guess I'm stress the importance of such a list when I go to his office again this month.
