About Aaron Patterson's former attorney:

Outside the presence of the jury, defense attorneys and prosecutors agreed that the continued involvement of Patterson's former attorney, Demitrus Evans, is detrimental to the trial.

Evans was removed as Patterson's attorney Friday after storming out of court, and prosecutors moved for her dismissal.

Brewer, a former FBI agent, told U.S. District Judge Rebecca Pallmeyer that he believes Evans is undermining his relationship with Patterson by telling t

he defendant that he is still working for the government. Evans denied that in an interview.
