Dear Reader,
I'm desperately writing you in hope
that you'll be able to aid and assist me in this wrongful life
imprisonment that I've been given.
I understand that you may be very busy in other legal matters and
litigations but please I pray that you'll consider this continued
ongoing nightmare that has altered my life forever.
I was convicted of a crime that I had no knowledge of and I was
convicted with little if any physical evidence at all. The state
knowingly allowed the witnesses to fabricate a lie to convict me.
If the state would not have offered a plea bargain
with the state witnesses I would not be in this situation.
Regardless of the fact that I am able to prove that I was lied on
and that the state assisted in the criminal act of creating a frame
around me to convict me.
My trial counsel had the knowledge at the trial that the state
witnesses were creating a lie and they reached a deal with the
prosecutor to eliminate the possibility of going to prison for the
crimes that they have committed during the course of waiting to go to
trial. I have no other means of assistance. I'm aware that
you may only
be interested in capitol punishment cases but correct me if I 'm wrong
is it not a capitol punishment to serve the duration of your life in
prison for a crime that you are actually innocent of?
I not only have affidavits but other evidence that my trial counsel and
direct appeal counsel forgot forgot to misplace before turning
over my original files. I'm in the last stages of fighting this
conviction and I'm running out of resources and the path I'm walking on
is getting even shorter. My Federal Habeas Corpus file number is
4: 97-CV-331 also my case could be found under No.901-1555.
2822-8
1993 and No.60805, 1995.
The trial counsel I had refused to investigate, call my witnesses or
cross examine the state witnesses with the inconsistency of their
testimonies. The witnesses made three statements and they were
not consistent with each other. They were conflicting and very
much contradicting. My trial counsel had this information at the
trial but refused to use it. My appeal attorney had this
knowledge but she also failed to do the same. One counsel
abandoning me
during the 29.15 stage without giving me any reason why she refused to
file an amended motion in my case. I tried to bring this up in
my evidentiary hearing but I was told to just answer the prepared
questions
by my second 29.15 counsel.
I know that I can prove that I'm innocent but how can I if
I'm not given a chance. If the students could prove that so
many on death row were actually innocent how many life without parole
do you think are actually innocent. We are often forgotten.
I
know if you'll just have someone please look at my case you'll see and
find that I've been living in prison for a crime I didn't do.
I've
been writing to many groups seeking the assistance but it's not
possible to fight a war by myself without the proper skills.
There was only one counsel counsel who I strongly fell tried to
assist me and you could contact him at:
Mr. Craig A. Johnston
3402 Buttonwood
Columbia, MO 6521-3722
I pray that you ar able to look into my case. I can't find any
probono attorneys and I wish that I could find some intern students to
work on my case. I was just 18 years old when I was arrested.
I've been robbed of my past and my future doesn't look any
brighter.
I hope to hear from you and I pray that you are able to aid me.
Like before please do not over look my case solely on
the fact that I'm not being put to death. Slowly I am being put
to death. Day after day I am dying. And my life is steadily
dying off. I need your help in all that is possible. I'm at
the point where I have nothing to live for. Because I was taken
away
from my family and robbed of my youth and my family is dying away soon
I will be the last one left and what is a life is you can't be
free
spiritually. I fell the freedom but I'm physically dead in a
forever
nightmare.
Sincerely signed
Someone who need's you.
