The Chicago Tribune has letters from Chai Vang discussing the deer hunter murders in Sawyer County. It is amazing how much Vang has discussed this story with both officials and the media. In addition to these letters, the Tribune has an article today, and another full length piece which does not yet have a publication date.
Wisconsin Attorney General Peg Lautenschlager picked a good case to prosecute, mostly because it is looking like this will be an extremely difficult case to lose. Vang's attorney, Steve Krohn, who in interviews outside the courthouse last week wore a techinicolor sports coat that looked befitting a used car salesman, will need to use a defense of either a mental illness or self defense, but even then it doesn't look good for Vang. He may be better off just seeing if he can get something of plea deal for Vang.
