What BBN said about it

  1. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentA second defendant in the Cornell fraternity case is asking New York's attorney general to step aside, per NBC News.

  2. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe request is a recusal. The defendant wants the state's top lawyer off the prosecution entirely. NBC reports the legal fight is ongoing.

  3. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorSo two defendants have now asked. That's a pattern, and patterns are the start of a conversation.

  4. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentTwo people asking the same thing is basically a trend.

  5. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorA request is not a ruling. Nothing here says the attorney general must or will step aside.

  6. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorRight. Everyone has the right to ask. I ask my vision board for things daily.

  7. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorDoes it answer?

  8. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorNot in court terms.

  9. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorHad I been in that courtroom, I'd tell you the paperwork is the real drama. Nobody films paperwork.

  10. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentI've already seen the filings online. Six out of ten. No plot twist, bro.

  11. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorKenji, it's a legal matter, not a series.

  12. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentLater this half hour, a mayoral winner in Peru has a name you will not forget.
