I am asking for your support. I need a voice that will speak out
about how I being victimize by our Justice System.
The people need to know the pain of my confusion and frustration,
that hurt me as a human being, because of the tragic injustice and irony
lies in the fact the most of victims of America's bestial are poor peoples,
often denied due process of law and I fall in that class of peoples.
As you can see, I want to talk about me in this Justice System, and the
philosophy of life that I find myself living. I know that I can't
give it all to you in this one sitting, because it will take more time than
that. So I will try to give you bits, and pieces of this puzzle in
the hope that you will understand what I am trying to say to you. The
honesty that I am trying to give you is the unembellishing of the truth.
The prosecutors in poison the media mind with Negative untruth facts that
is destroy my character, which in fact, he have never spend no time around
me, only in the courtroom. When he drawn up these illusory about me
and how the crime happen there can be no justice when lies are put forth
as truths, he couldn't even find anyone from my community to say one bad thing
about me, but he tell the jury and the media I am a bad man and the only
way to stop me is to sentence me to Death. So the jury did just that. And
there was no truth obtained in the trial. All that was obtained was
a conviction based on lies. A prosecutor has the responsiblity of a
Minister of Justice, and not simply that of an advocate. The responsibility
carries with it specific obligations to see that the defendant is accorded
procedural Justice and that guilt is decided upon the basis of sufficient
evidence.
My trial lawyer Mr Hugh Lee Bailey Jr fail to give my trial jury any mitigating
evidence on my behalf, that I was force at gun point and I thought my life
was in danger because I was a victim of a home invasion that my sister was
raped and I was forced to watch my sister being raped. Also I had to
watch a man put a knife to my 18 month old niece neck and force my sister
to take off her clothes. Me and my sister had to be taken by ambulance
to the hospital where I was treat with head injuries and my hands was
injured. The hospital bill for the treatment was sent to my mother
next door neighbour who give her the bill. I told my trial lawyer
Mr Hugh Lee Bailey Jr. all about this, thats why I took the stand because
I thought he was going to show that to the jury, that evidence, plus to call
my sister to testify on my behalf why I went in the store. Also that
is why my sister is under Physis medication and she must go to see Physis
Doctor every month for this reason. All my Trial lawyer Mr Hugh Lee
Bailey Jr had to do is get the police report and the record from the Hospital
where I was treated to show the jury.
I only had one trial lawyer and he was not qualified to handle a capital
murder case. And he made many mistakes which now he have given affidavit
stated all the wrong he did at trial. Even the private investigator
have given affidavit stated that he didn't do his best work and the little
work he did do, he made some mistake in it, if one can take all that in mind,
how can one say truly. I got alibi defense. When you aren't able
to hire a lawyer you will always be denied equal protection under the law
and justice will never fill your cup up. Poor people are aware of
this abuse, for a disproportionate number of poor people suffer from it
constantly.
I come to you ask for you to help me trial in my case in the media, and
being already tried in the courtroom and the jury haven't heard the whole
truth I was denied justice. The only way I think I can get a new trial
is with the help of the people, that they will help put pressure on the
justice system- I know first I must show the people that the justice system
didn't give me a fair trial. And I must admit I really don't know
how to go by trial in my case in the media and it have being wear and tear
on my brain cells. But no problems can be solved until they are faced
squarely and illusion are possible. So I am ready to face it head
on.
Is there any question(s) you need to ask to help me do this and if there
are any documents that I can send just let me know and I will try to get
them to you.
Until next time take care of yourself and thanks a lot for your time.
