information she might have, as an adversary at Madara’s parole hearing or something. And because Carrie was Mandi's attorney, it let Mandi's attorneys use Madara's recorded jail phone calls about Carrie, where she lied and made up nasty stories about Carrie cheating on her husband and having sex, as evidence of Madara’s bias, and propensity for malicious gossip. It was all a complete scam. First, Carrie does not even need a confidentiality waiver. She is immediately relieved of any ethical obligation to Madara when Madara commits a crime, in this case perjury. Second, the rules of evidence do not even permit Carrie to say any confidential information obtained from Madara, they are only allowed to "impeach" Madara’s credibility with specific types of public information. I knew exactly what happened. I had already paid Carrie $80,000, and still owed her another $20,000 for $100,000 total. If her previous client being a witness disqualifies Carrie from the case, she immediately loses $100k. Meanwhile, Adam Reiss wants to control Madara’s testimony, on behalf of his actual paying client Chris Dahl. It was a very shady setup Reiss was engaged in. In exchange for Rentz looking the other way, and never telling anyone Reiss was also Dahl’s attorney, Reiss got the waiver from Madara which enabled Carrie to keep her $100,000. It was a quid pro quo at the expense of Rentz’s client Mandi. Reiss and Madara basically paid Rentz $100,000 to look the other way. Carrie Rentz was diagnosed with a major medical problem at this time. She had to go through surgery, she couldn't take on any new cases, she was strapped for cash. She probably had to do whatever Adam Reiss told her to do for that $100,000, to keep from losing her house and her office. And Bark is loyal to Carrie, he did what he had to also. Carrie knew Adam Reiss was Chris Dahl’s attorney when his other client Madara made up the story about Mandi confessing. But Carrie never provided that information to McLatchey who was supposed to advise Mandi on the conflict. Carrie never admitted to knowing it whatsoever. And Mandi never knew what was really going on. It also came out that Madara blamed Carrie for bad legal advice, which Carrie provided in exchange for visits to a nail salon owned by Madara’s mother. Madara thought her previous conviction was Carrie’s fault, and wanted to sabotage Carrie as revenge. But McLatchey never got that information to advise Mandi, and Mandi never knew. Mandi's lawyers never brought up Adam Reiss’ name at trial. They said the jailhouse witnesses were lying about a "Chris Dahl" being involved, he was some irrelevant person who had nothing to do with anything. They asked lead Detective Sprague on the stand at Mandi's trial "Have you ever known of anyone named Chris Dahl to be in any way involved in this case?" No. Of course the jurors went straight back to the jury room, and punched the last number Mandi called into their tablets. One juror was using a tablet right in the jury box during bench conferences, and everyone was too strapped for cash to risk shutting down the trial over it. So I am sure those girls who were using their devices the whole trial, saw Chris Dahl’s name pop up for the phone record as the last person Mandi talked to before going to Mulrenin's house. So Mandi's attorneys covered for Reiss, the jury found them to be liars hiding Chris Dahl's involvement, nobody cared that the jurors broke the rules all day and lied about it, and Mandi got two life sentences. Mandi's lawyers would say they did it for two reasons, 1) A Seminole jury will convict you of first degree murder for hanging out with drug dealers, and 2) Mandi's lawyers were afraid not just Madara, but Chris Dahl, would testify against Mandi to protect himself. If that is the case, Mandi should have known what was going on, before deciding whether Carrie had a conflict of interest. Mandi never heard anything about any theory that Chris Dahl might testify against her to protect himself from drug charges, and that is why they had to protect Reiss and Dahl in exchange for a confidentiality waiver worth $100,000. To this day Mandi imagines Chris Dahl is her best friend in the world and would never do anything like that. I could not contact Mandi in isolation to tell her to dump Carrie for accepting a bribe. So I wrote her a letter, and I wrote a complaint to the Florida Bar. Mandi was sedated 23 hours a day in isolation, she thought I was joking. The Florida Bar told me it had all been settled appropriately by Mandi's conflict attorney McLatchey. They said the court approved of it, and I had no right as a third palty to complain or have contact with Mandi in jail. What The Bar did not know, is that the relevant information of Madara’s attorney being Chris Dahl’s attorney, and Madara being motivated by a grudge against Mandi's attorney who did legal work in exchange for facials from Madara’s mother, was never shared with McLatchey to advise Mandi properly in light of the full facts.
