Bruton Violation

1.    Whether the prosecutor corrupted the trial process in violation of Appellant’s Fifth and Sixth Amendment rights by usurping the grand jury’s subpoena power to compel attendance in his of¬fice for interviews, paying witness fees to individuals who did not testify in the grand jury, and coercing witnesses to testify falsely at trial, and whether he knew or should have known that at least one of those witness testified falsely as a result of his actions?
2.    Whether the prosecutor violated his responsibilities under Brady v. Maryland, 373 U.S. 83, 83 S. Ct. 1194, 10 L. Ed. 2d 215 (1964), by withholding from the defense upon request excul¬patory information concerning one witness who gave conflicting accounts of events on the night of the homicide and repeatedly asserted that he was too drunk to recall what happened, and other witnesses who would have testified that another key government witness against Appellant had left the scene before the homicide for which he was convicted occurred?

Bonilla v. United States, No. 98-CF-212, 06-CO-1164 -- In first-degree murder case prosecutor used grand jury subpoenaes to require potential witnesses to appear in his office repeatedlyfor interviews, attempted to coerce them to provide information supporting the government's theory of the case He only took before the grand jury those who eventually changed their accounts to conform to the government's theory. Although several of those witnesses gave statements which were exculpatory and others impeached government witnesses, the prosecutor withheld them until witnesses testified at trial, preventing defense counsel from investigating and calling witnesses. In the middle of trial the Judge allowed a government witness to testify about a codefendant's admission that he and another defendant argued over who would use a knife in the fatal attack. Although the statement did not directly implicate Bonilla, the argument occurred in the back seat of Bonilla's car. The argument was inadmissible against Bonila, but it was the only evidence that he knew his passengers were armed.
