Most convictions do not involve DNA .Most false and wrongful convictions are secured by official misconduct or outright vilati0ons on the accused rights ,IE Brady violations and 4 th amendment rights along with very pro prosecution courts that do not allow the accused chance to properly defend themselves <br /><br /> Appeals are based on procedure not substance or reality . A person can be convicted due o ta legal fiction in the US and never be able to prove it due to how our current laws are written .

The majority of Texas' exonerations have stemmed from post-conviction DNA testing."<br /><br />Now, does anyone (other than Grits & myself) know the reason(s) as to - Why? You are encouraged to include links to previous GFB Post(s) to show you've paid attention or appriciated his hard work on the subject(s).Thomas R.

And of course, we can't forget about the historic bold statement made by Mr. Hon., where he says, "willing to discuss". <br /><br />Thanks for something? I'll let you know what it is, when I find out.Thomas R.
