They did the same thing in the Rittenhouse trial. Remember? They were discovered to have had a plane overhead recording the events in HD and didn't provide the footage to the defense.

I think it is harder on the defense that some accepted plea deals thus admitting guilt, but I did hear an attorney explain that even that could be thrown out as the plea deal was made without this evidence being presented to the defendant. Hopefully all are released asap.
