I also wondered if Fleet may have tackled Steve in a chokehod prior to the depo, and passionately argued against Thomas's hiring of lawyers--until I remembered that Fleet armed himself with attorneys, too.

It appears Fleet thinks that only the Ramseys shouldn't have legal protection. Now why is that? Could the answer be that he wanted the Ramseys not to have their rights protected? That would certainly be consistent behavior with the killer who framed the Ramseys. And isn't it interesting that Fleet made such a big scene over the Ramseys hiring lawyers--as if he wanted to make sure that everyone believed that they were acting guilty and hiding behind their lawyers.
