Subject: Anderson Cooper/ Gary Tuckman [sic]Orlando Attorney Mark Lippman Issues Media Statement
ORLANDO - Orlando attorney Mark Lippman issued the following statement regarding the Anderson Cooper Show on June 22, 2011.
This is to clarify the reporting done by Mr. Tuckman. First Mr. Tuckman was not given an exclusive interview. Mr. Tuckman approached Mark Lippman as he was leaving the Courthouse today and Mr. Lippman spoke with Mr. Tuckman for approximately four minutes. During this conversation Mr. Lippman was attempting to clarify that Mr. Tuckman had allowed other reports that he provided to various news agencies to become embellished . After this was identified to Mr. Tuckman, Mr. Lippman allowed Mr. Tuckman to make speculations regarding the Anthony family and a further conversation ensued. All of the statements given to Mr. Tuckman were not reported on the Anderson Cooper Show. While Mr. Lippman understands that Mr. Tuckman is a reporter, Mr. Lippman holds Mr. Tuckman to the standard that any and all statements should not be taken either out of context or misrepresent the idea that a breach of attorney client privilege was given specifically to him at any time or in any context. This statement will clear any misunderstanding that either Mr. Tuckman had or Mr. Lippman had with regard to the conversation.
As you all know now on behalf of the Anthony Family, Lippman Law Offices, P.A. have done one of three things:
1. Issued a statement.
2. Done an interview either via television or radio.
3. Specifically stated that a reporter can quote Mr. Lippman.
Unfortunately these three things did not happen to today with regard to Mr. Tuckman. Therefore let Mr. Lippman will clarify statements made today. The Anthony family maintains that they simply want justice in this case. The Anthony family maintains they do NOT under any circumstance support any theory that the defense has put forward regarding George Anthony's actions. The Anthony family maintains that while they want both the State and Defense to do their jobs respectively, they do not under any circumstance wish to see that the State achieves the ultimate sanction that the State of Florida is looking for, which is the death penalty. The Anthony family maintains they want the truth about what has happened to their Grand Daughter. Finally Lippman Law Offices does not and will not condone the idea that attorney-client privilege was ever breached and any misunderstanding as to statements made should not be considered that the Anthony Family wants anything other than the things identified here.
Mr. Lippman stated that he and his clients strive to continue with their original commitment that they want to keep the distractions from encumbering the presentation of the defense or the prosecution in this case and will not engage in further speculation or idle conversation.
