The Fannick-Kerekes Transcripts

Based on testimony today and yesterday at the hearings, in addition to statements to the media, I believe I have been able to reproduce highly accurate fictional transcripts of exactly what was CLAIMED to have been said at those eight non-lawyer-non-client meetings between Joe and Demetrius Fannick.

While I may be off on a word or two, I believe these transcripts capture the essense of what they claim went down at these meetings.

So, without further adoo:


TRANSCRIPT: October 26, 2007 -- Luzerne County Prison


DEMETRIUS FANNICK: Hi Joe, I'm Demetrius Fannick.




JOESEPH KEREKES: Hi I'm Joe. How much do you charge?




DEMETRIUS FANNICK: For you, looks like about $50,000. $25,000 up front.




JOESEPH KEREKES: Hmmm, let me sit here and think about that in silence in front of you for the next 39 minutes.




DEMETRIUS FANNICK: [looks at watch] OK, works for me; I have nothing better to do...



[39 minutes later]

So, if Joe looks like $50,000, how much should one charge to defend Harlow? Or should one pay to defend Harlow? I'm just saying!

Anyway, your usual brilliance Jim. Thanks. I will smile for a while.

Big Jim--

I do believe you have captured the essence of the tall tale Demetrius Fannick and Joe Looney Tune Kerekes discussed, at least, what those two would like us to believe they discussed. Hysterical is an understatement.

Now, I do have to believe that Judge Olszewski can see through the smoke bomb being laid and will put a damper on Fannick and scheme.

PC said...

Jim,

Good job on showing just how comical it is to think that Fannick and Kerekes only talked about fees. :)

DeWayne In San Diego said...

Hi Jim a little cross post from PC's and appropriate for this post.

Blogger DewayneinSD said...

Jim you so nailed this from the begining! The whole idea that the "Familys" cooked up this idea behind Joe's back to keep Harlow from "Rolling"!

Once again if they had just let Joe in on this and he had kept quiet in the courtroom Fannick would be Harlows attorney today!

So once again Joe Fucked Harlow up!

How many times now?

Question When is Harlow going to react to all the shank wounds from Joe?

When is he going to do the only thing that will save him?

When is Harlow going to Roll on Joe?

With the Judges statement that Joe's Outburst led directly to his removing Fannick as Harlows Counsel

Harlows Team should be counseling him to take a deal and testify against Joe.

It is obvious if Harlow goes to trial Joe WILL TAKE the stand and point the finger at Harlow for the whole shebang!

If Harlow does not realize that now

He is beyond Stupid

He is Trailer Trash!

A harsh term but it refers to people with no common sense with no sense of self-preservation!

I.E. When the Twister is bearin down on them in the trailer park they go outside and stare at it,,,
"What do you expect they are Trailer Trash they don't know any better!"

while the normal folk run for the shelter!

That is an old OKIE observation!

Harlow has only ONE option and that is the same one he had in October,,,

Take a plea and Testify against Joe

Or watch Joe testify against Harlow at trial.

One or the other will happen

What alternative scenario can possibly play out at trial?

The only way Joe will not "Roll on Harlow" at trial would be if he is sitting at the Defense table Bound Gagged and Blindfolded!

Last chance for Harlow to

Wake Up and smell the Duplicity!

jim said...

You know, in a way this is not surprising.

One drawback to delaying the arrest of Harlow and Joe so long was, Joe and Harlow had plenty of time (ie, since the SWAT raid) to plot and plan what they would do if they ever did get arrested.

I imagine they swore mighty oaths to each other, never to turn on each other.

The jailhouse phone call facilitator must also take his/her share of the blame for this too, IMO.

DeWayne In San Diego said...

Ya Jim they didn't even think they were going to make it out of San Diego! When Harlow was surrounded on Virginia Beach Blvd 2 weeks later he was on the phone to Barry Taylor
,,,"Barry I'm being arrested"

Sounds like they were a long time waiting for that shoe to drop,,

How much you wanna bet the pillow talk was mighty interesting April 29th to May 15th

Joe "Harlow we will be together for each other forever ,I'll stand by you man, and you'll do the same, Our Love is as strong as your Dick Wonder,Stud Wonder! No one can make us talk United we stand Divided we Fall! Semper Fi Bro!

Harlow "Yeah Joe I am true to you, your my husband,my man,my dad,my love, we stay strong together, don't say anything and we'll be okay! I have your back Joe and you'll be my True BLUE Marine" (Freudian slip ;-P )

Of course all this pillow talk is fine and dandy on satin sheets in the Bordello RumpASS room (Thanks Rob) BUT the moment Joes delicate skin lay on a rough prison blanket on a solid jail house bunk and our brave "wanna-be" marine is squealing,,, "Harlow was in Bryan's house I was never there ASK HIM what happened!"

And Harlow well who exactly has he NOT CONFESSED too?

He calls Sean up on Jan 25th
Confesses (The phone call)

By the time they got on the plane leaving San Diego for Virginia how many times had Harlow confessed Jim?

And Apologized!

But you know what? having served on a jury in a murder trial,,

I have come to this conclusion

Take away Harlows confession
and Joes guilty behavior

forget Blacks beach totally

Consider just the Circumstantial evidence,,,

Harlow Cuadra was in Bryan Kocis house on Jan 24th 2007, established FACT!

Joe confirms this helpfully on arrival in PA but it was unnecessary in any event. WE KNOW Harlow was in the house.

We know Joe was at 60 Midland Dr. as well, his cell phone and laptop are being used at the same time Bryan is discussing Cock and Wine on the Couch with Harlow!

But Harlow is the last man to see Bryan alive,,He has an apt with Bryan which witness's confirm he made.

Bryan converses with Harlow while on the phone to his lawyer and Lee Bergeron

An hour later Bryan is dead, stabbed 28 times throat slit.

At 8:35 a 911 call is made we know who made the call and it wasn't Mrs. Kravitz!

When the fire is out we have a dead body its Bryan Kocis,,,

ALL Circumstantial yes

But its a SLAM DUNK

No other explanation Harlow KILLED Bryan!

No beach tapes needed
No testimony from Sean
No testimony from Grant
not even Robert Wagner
No video of a gun or knife

Just 3 phone witnesses place Harlow there in Bryans house thats ALL we Need.

Then we have Joe,,,

So helpful to the prosecution,,,

and to the executioner

Here is the rope sir, do my boyfriend first, make sure its tight and snug there, we want it to be a clean break!

Don't want my BITCH thinkin ole Joe aint lookin out for his No 1!

jim said...

And the two identical video cameras. With the serial numbers both scratched off. Don't forget the video cameras!

Yeah I know, it's so HARD to remember ALL the evidence vs. Harlow and Joe, because there is SO MUCH of it. Thus it's easy to forget about a particularly damning bit of evidence after we have not talked about it for a while.

Sucks to be us, LOL!
