My boyfriend has ask his attorney/attorney’s office for his discovery packet and the receptionist said the packet was sent to the jail and the only documents he received is the police report. She then said she didn’t actually send the full thing and was told to only send the police report. How can he go about this and isn’t he supposed to get these other documents by law?
The prosecutor's office must turn over whatever they have to his attorney. That is their obligation. Then it is his attorney's obligation to provide him with those documents. Your boyfriend should ask his attorney for a copy of everything that was provided to him/her.
