Bob Bashara's Attorney Steps Over the Line

Bob Bashara got into hot water over a dumb legal move.

Wayne County Circuit Judge Timothy Kenny admonished Bashara's attorney David Griem for issuing unauthorized subpoenas in the the Jane Bashara murder case even though his client is not charged. For now, only handyman Joe Gentz is charged, but Bashara is a person of interest.

WXYZ reported that legal experts said Griem can't issue a subpoena if there is no case against his client. Griem wanted employment records of Gentz.

Griem blamed an assistant in his office for issuing the subpoenas, but said he ultimately should take responsibility.

Judge Kenny asked him to write a letter withdrawing the subpoena, WXZY reported.
