keenan's case. i do want to state that the court wants to make a clear statement that the decision here today is not a reflection on the current team of assistant county prosecutors that have been assigned to this case. they have conducted themselves in a professional and forthcoming manner. nor is this a reflection of the court's opinion on keenan's guilt or innocence. instead, it is a decision that is founded on the basic right that our forefathers envisioned for those accused of a crime to be afforded a fair trial, free from prejudice and misconduct. in light of the state's egregious prosecutorial misconduct in keenan's prior two trials, keenan cannot receive the fair and constitutional trial that he is entitled to today. and this court is going to dismiss this case with prejudice. the court finds that thomas michael keenan's motion to dismiss the indictment against him with prejudice must be granted in the interest of justice and fairness. i order the sheriff to release you upon being interviewe
