Limbaugh: Enough time

Palm Beach Post Editorial

Sunday, June 19, 2005

Rush Limbaugh's attorney keeps saying that his client is innocent. So why does he keep acting as though his client is guilty?

Every court has decided that Palm Beach County prosecutors acted legally in November 2003 when they obtained search warrants to seize the talk-show host's medical records as part of an investigation into illegal use of prescription painkillers. Six weeks ago, the Florida Supreme Court declined to review lower courts' decisions that sided with prosecutors. Yet last week, Roy Black was back before the judge who issued the search warrant, arguing that Mr. Limbaugh, who broadcasts much of the time from Palm Beach, should be able to decide which records the prosecutors will see.
