The Advocate reports that several defense attorneys interviewed agree that the $800,000 requested by Derrick Lee's defense team is reasonable, with one indicating that a proper defense might cost $3 million because of the short lead time to trial. The article also notes that the East Baton Rouge Parish Public Defender's Office has not paid rent for years.
