| Bishop Martin Sigillito wants a new trial |
Now, he feels he deserves a new trial. The reason: "sustained governmental misconduct."
In a motion filed Wednesday, Sigillito's attorney, Doug Roller, argued that federal prosecutors "improperly influenced the jury" by referring more than once to Bernie Madoff (a slimeball who needs no introduction). Roller also alleges that they intimidated an expert defense witness, and allowed victims to talk about the case outside of trial.
