On the recordOctober 2, 2000
As the gentleman knows, being very familiar with the law, and, of course, I bring to this debate my experience as a physician having taken care of a lot of AIDS patients, most reputable prosecutors will look at exonerating information before they would bring an indictment before a grand jury; and those pieces of information are not totally excluded. My concern with the gentleman's issue, the probable cause issue is that it would lead to sufficient level of delay that people would not be treated within the 72-hour window; and then, therefore, people would unnecessarily contract AIDS, and that the better good is to allow this provision to go forward; and that the rights of the accused would be sufficiently protected through the indictment process.
