Defense says lawyers shaping trial as judge and others push input

In a Davis Mountains case, Ben Buecker argues Karen Paulson and husband face burglary with intent to commit a felony after storming a neighbor's home. The abduction of Joe and M A Rowe spurred a standoff with state troopers. McLaren and White Eagle Otto were convicted of organized crime. Indicted co defendants McLaren and Otto testified and were ejected from court during their trials. The Paulsons and Richard Keyes III face the same burglary charge, with penalties of five to 99 years and fines up to 10,000 dollars. District Attorney Valadez notes organized crime proof depended on McLaren and Otto testimony.
