		Though Pellicano and his pro bono advisory attorney Steven Gruel have yet to see any evidence the government has compiled pursuant to the wiretapping charges, Pellicano wants to go quickly to trial and is willing to do it without the help of a federal public defender, say the sources.
		Tomorrow, either Pellicano or Gruel might file discovery motions to find evidence that 2002 allegations of Pellicano being involved in a conspiracy to extort former Los Angeles Times reporter Anita Busch were used by the FBI as a subterfuge to obtain a search warrant to enter Pellicano’s West Hollywood offices.
		According to Pellicano’s side, the allegedly corrupted warrant allowed agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation– who reportedly were miffed that Pellicano may had early wiretapped one of their own -- to seize what Pellicano believes they were really after: computer hardware that was in Pellicano’s office.

		But unless Pellicano tries to break out of the joint with one of his many ex-girlfriends firing an AK, this is one story that will probably whimper to an end after the big bang of what is supposed to be the Indictment of the Century.
		Pellicano's whole demeanor towards Dan Saunders, the prosecutor, doesn't seem to be one of a co-operating witness.
		Pellicano's pro bono lawyer has had no need to address the evidence proffered per what was found in Pellicano's computers seized on Nov. 2002 yet.
