The Ira Isaacs Soap Opera- Will He Plea Bargain? Will Trey Parker Be a Witness for the Defense?

Will prosecutor Bonnie Hannan drop the ball the way she did at the John Stagliano trial? Stay tuned.

LOS ANGELES— www.avn.com reports that a “status conference” was held Monday afternoon in the case of United States v. Ira Isaacs who was accused of mailing three adult movies to an undercover postal inspector, and was charged in early 2008 with transporting obscene material.

Through a series of Keystone Kops maneuvers, original trial judge Alex Kozinski had to recuse himself when the LA Times exposed the fact that Kozinski was the owner of a website of questionable sexual tastes. Kozinski then went on to declare a “manifest necessity” for a mistrial in the case which Isaacs’ attorney, Roger Jon Diamond, disputed through the federal court system, until his petition for certiorari was recently rejected by the U.S. Supreme Court.

The case was then reassigned to Judge George H. King, who suspended proceedings while Isaacs’ appeal was in process. King next scheduled a hearing Monday to ask Diamond and the new prosecutor in the case, Bonnie Hannan [good news since she was one of the screwups in the Stagliano trial] where things stood.

Diamond said that owing to Isaacs’ poor financial condition, he and the government had engaged in settlement discussions. Hannan later affirmed that she would take Diamond’s offer back to Washington to discuss with her superiors; however, she did request that Judge King set a trial date at the hearing, which she indicated she hoped would be sometime this fall.

It was also brought up that Isaacs wanted to call “South Park” creator Trey Parker [pictured] as an expert witness, which might necessitate a “Daubert hearing” to sift through Parker’s qualifications. Judge King asked that the attorneys update him on the status of the case no later than 10 days from today’s date.

As it stands, the trial could either begin in October or be pushed back to next February.
