There is developing news on the Darren Mack case. Thursday KOLO broke the story that Mack was hiring a new criminal attorney: William Routsis.

We spoke with Routsis on the telephone this evening, and he confirms that Mack will be asking to withdraw the plea deal made earlier this month.

"This plea was made under great duress. And it was thrown on him in a very short period of time. And I will reserve the specific facts at an appropriate time, but I think they are quite compelling."

Prosecuting Attorney Christopher Lalli has reportedly made comments stating Darren Mack will not be successful in withdrawing his plea. On that topic Routsis says, "What's concerning is (Lalli) has no information concerning that the plea was freely given because he's not privy to what happened between Mr. Mack and his attorneys."

Of course Mack will withdraw his plea. He's got millions, why wouldn't he? He's looking for the best justice money can buy. As the founder of www.FamilyLawCourts.com - it's not unusual for men to opt for murder instead of divorce. See www.FamilyLawCourts.com/domestic.html and the number of kids killed, too; at www.FamilyLawCourts.com/kids.html Sadly, media doesn't cover the nation's busiest courts. As such media has no idea because perjury isn't prosecuted, but in some cases, condoned; Family Court is mostly about judges ordering legal and therapeutic services for all comers. Divorce and custody is an unregulated, booming industry. And Mack's just paying his dues.
