This was also an argument advanced by the lawyers for the Innocence Project. If that's right, there was NO ONE there representing the state or the prosecution. I'm not sure that even Grits could support such a totally transparent and biased effort to establish a finding of innocence on Willingham's part. What say you, Grits?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-70788387967870857322010-10-17T12:27:40.346-05:002010-10-17T12:27:40.346-05:00Well, 9:23, Baird asked Lowell to participate on b...Well, 9:23, Baird asked Lowell to participate on behalf of Navarro County or the State, and he declined. <br /><br />My biggest guess as to why: The jail house snitch that testified during Willingham's trial has recanted. Actually, he recanted ten years ago, four years prior to Willingham's execution, and the Navarro County DA's office never disclosed that to Willingham or his lawyers.<br /><br />Lowell is covering for Pat Bachelor, the long time DA in Navarro County who hired Lowell out of law school.<br /><br />Like 11:28 above, I'm hoping someone else run for DA next time. They'll have my vote.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-25363328012846497822010-10-17T09:23:12.953-05:002010-10-17T09:23:12.953-05:00Who was representing the State at the Baird "...Who was representing the State at the Baird "court of inquiry?" I read that Baird ruled that the Navarro County DA was not a party to the proceedings. Who was there to examine the testimony and qualifications of the Innocence Project witnesses? This whole deal wreaks of a one sided Kangaroo Court, Grits, with a preordained result. How anyone could find any decision by Baird to be legitimate under these circumstances is beyond me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-67339619611583379662010-10-16T11:28:06.947-05:002010-10-16T11:28:06.947-05:00Lowell, I'm voting against you for this charad...Lowell, I'm voting against you for this charade.
