Texas Bar Association Sues Prosecutor and Why We Should Care

What a headline. It is a welcomed headline for those of us fighting wrongful convictions. Michael Morton spent 25 years in prison for crimes he did not commit. Before Morton was convicted, then Williamson County, Texas District Attorney Ken Anderson apparently had evidence that could prove Morton’s innocence before his trial, but did not reveal the evidence to his attorney, nor to the jury. For twenty-five long years, Morton lived in a prison, deprived of his freedom, his family, and his finances, while Ken Anderson went on to become a judge, basking in the number of convictions that secure promotions in the convict at all cost culture that exists in far too many district attorney offices.

Thats the reason I voted against the death penalty, to many blacks are unfairly tried in a court of law. The mass conspiracy of injustice has collaborated itself in the justice system. Private prisons that sells stocks and black and brown men are the commodities.
