Ex-inmate's innocence official

Ex-inmate's innocence official

Richmond Times-Dispatch

Gov. Timothy M. Kaine has signed a revised pardon for former death-row
inmate Earl Washington Jr. based on his innocence of the crimes for which he
was nearly executed.

Washington was convicted of the 1982 rape and murder of Rebecca Lynn
Williams in Culpeper. In 1985, he came within nine days of execution. DNA
testing led to his pardon by Gov. Jim Gilmore in 2000.

However, at that time, Gilmore said his pardon did not mean Washington was
innocent, only that a jury would not have convicted him in light of the DNA
evidence.

WHY THE NEW PARDON? "It is now evident that Mr. Washington was and is
innocent of the crimes against Mrs. Williams . . . I have decided it is just
and appropriate to grant this revised absolute pardon that reflects Mr.
Washington's innocence," says Kaine's proclamation signed Tuesday.

Since 2000, DNA testing further implicated convicted rapist Kenneth Maurice
Tinsley, who pleaded guilty to Williams' murder in April.

WASHINGTON'S REACTION: Reached by telephone yesterday, Washington, 47, said,
"It makes me feel good, happy."

Barry Weinstein, one of Washington's longtime lawyers, said: "I'm elated and
grateful to Governor Kaine."

BACKGROUND: After Washington, who is mildly retarded, was arrested in 1983
on unrelated charges, he confessed to raping and murdering Williams but
quickly recanted.

Last year, a federal jury awarded Washington $2.25 million after finding
that police fabricated evidence against him by feeding him details of the
crime that only the killer could have known. However, that award was
contested and, in March, Washington reached a $1.9 million settlement with
the state.

Washington has married since his release. He works for an assisted-living
program in Virginia Beach and lives in one of the program's apartments.

HOW MUCH OF THAT MONEY DOES WASHINGTON GET? Robert T. Hall, a Fairfax lawyer
who also represents Washington, said that after legal and other expenses,
Washington realized more than $1 million.

Roughly three-quarters of that was used to purchase a lifetime annuity that
pays about $2,800 to $3,400 a month. The annuity is guaranteed for 20 years
so that if Washington dies, his wife, Pam, can benefit.

The Supreme Court of the United States of America stated in 1984

"Of all the rights that an accused person has,the right to be represented by counsel is by far the most pervasive,for it affects his ability to assert any other rights he may have."

There is something very unethical with our American judicial system which allows only wealthy Americans
with proper legal representation for their federal appeals to have real opportunities of being granted new retrials,and the tens of thousands of innocent poor prison inmates without the benefit of any legal counsel,to be consistently denied in mass their equal opportunities at receiving federal judges positive decisions of new retrials,
If having 100,000 falsely imprisoned in this country is not enough of a wakeup call for our US Congress to correct this injustice,then why would any caring American be upset if president Hugo Chavez of Venezuela decided to get involved assisting these 100,000 falsely incarcerated innocent Americans who not only have been abandoned and forgotten by their government leaders,but have also beem ignored and neglected byour National Media who pretend they do not even exist??

-- THE FIRST OF THE TOP 10 --
REASONS FOR OUR US CONGRESSIONAL
LEADERS OF THE FREE WORLD TO BEGIN AFFORDING MIDDLE CLASS AND WORKING POOR AMERICAN CITIZENS FEDERAL APPEAL LEGAL REPRESENTATION!

#1)America is already rated the number one country in the World for the amount of ones own innocent citizens(100,000)being falsely imprisoned! By continuing to deny our poorer fellow Americans affordable federal appeal legal representation, our US Congress will only continue running the risk of allowing our US judicial system to go on wrongfully incarcerating many more thousands of our innocent fellow Americans to endless decades behind our very high silent walls of the largest populated (2,000,000)prison system in the World!

What we have here in this Manny Gonzales criminal case is a jury, judge and DA taking care of their communities safety from gangs in a typical vigilante hang him high process. The presiding judge tells both attorneys (defense and prosecution ) prior the trial that this specific case is not gang related and advises the DA to instruct their witnesses not to mention or insinuate gang association information to the jury. At this point in this trial the presiding judge is aware of and protective of the defendants rights to a fair trial, knowing darn well that if a La jury is lead to believe ( rightly or wrongly ) a defendant is affiliated with a gang that a fair trial is almost impossible. What happens when this DA decides to use gang association (over the judges denials ) on this jury is really quite devious. LA judges are allowing these type of unjust trials to continue knowing these defendants can appeal for a new trial from prison after they lose their jury trials. Local DA's know this local judicial system will not dismiss a jury due to DA's using gang association with defendants and they have a free hand to play their jury to the max. This play acting between the presiding judge pretending to protect the defendants right to a fair trial and the devious DA who wants to protect our society by taking justice into their own hands is a little what Manny Gonzales and his public defender had to deal with. Any judge that allows a rouge Da to disobey their specific orders on misleading their jury into believing the defendant is either a gang member or the specific crime is gang related should have the common sense and decency to dismiss the jury and call for a new trial. This kid Manny Gonzales tried as an adult needed this judge not just to set the guidelines in the start of the trial with this rouge DA,but also to continue to protect the defendant with his right to a fair trial throughout the entire trial. When this presiding judge allowed this trial to continue the jury believed both the DA and the judge that Manny Gonzales was a gang member and this specific shooting incident was not related to his affiliation with gang activity. Every night during this two week trial this jury went home and had the opportunity to watch gang violence reported on their nightly news. How could anyone think Manny Gonzales and with his public defender in tow could defeat a presiding judge, rouge DA,and a inflamed jury with possible nightly exposure to gang TV violence ?

The prison experts have reported that there are 100,000 innocent Americans currently being falsely imprisoned along with the estimated 2,000,000 total US prison population Nationwide.
Since our US Congress has never afforded poor prison inmates federal appeal legal counsel for their federal retrials,they have effectively shut the doors on these tens of thousands of innocent citizens ever being capable of possibly exonerating themselves and regain their freedom through being granted retrials.This same exact unjust situation was happening in our Southern states when poor and mostly uneducated Black Americans were being falsely railroaded into Southern prisons for endless decades without the needed educational skills to properly submit their own written federal retrial appeals.This unjust judicial process of making our poor and innocent prison inmates formulate and write their own legal cases for possible retrials on their state criminal cases,is still in effect today even though everyone in our US Judicial System knows that without proper legal representation,these tens of thousands of innocent prison inmates will be denied their rightful chance of ever being granted new trials from US Federal Appeal judges.
If anyone is interested in seeing first-hand a current victim of this federal appeal neglect by our US Congress,they can Google or Yahoo on the WWW Manny Gonzales the kid who everyone forgot in the Ca prison system!At this WWW site you will be also able to read about Timothy Atkins who also was never offered proper legal counsel 22 years ago for his federal appeal!As a matter of fact,our US judicial system has become so negligent with protecting our poorer Americans with this federal appeal situation,that a letter was actually written to President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela requesting his assistance in financing this Manny Gonzales kids federal appeal legal fees.By the way,Timothy Atkins was just recently released from his Ca prison in Ca after 22 years
of being falsely imprisoned!

When The US Congress Denied Masses Of Americans Their Possible Freedom !


When the wealthiest country in the world continues to allow the enslavement of the tens of thousands of their own innocent Middle Class and Working Poor Americans to decades of false imprisonment it's time to ask for international help!!!
Currently there are reported to be 100,000 falsely imprisoned Americans living along with the estimated 2,000,000 US prison population nationwide.America now has the very unique distinction of not only being rated the #1 in the World for having the largest prison population,but America also has the distinct rating of having the largest wrongfully imprisoned prison population in the World as well.Our US Congress affords themselves all the perks and salary most Americans could only dream about,but ask anyone of these Leaders Of The Free World to protect our Middle Class or Working Poor Americans from continuing to be falsely imprisoned endless decades due to the lack of federal appeal legal counsel being afforded them, and you just might be thought of as being crazy?The masses of the American people could never come close to ever being able to burden these federal appeal legal costs for themselves or for a family member,and should not need a lobbying group for this basic right of legal protection to be afforded them! Our Poster Child of this exact neglect by our US Congress is this young man named Manny Gonzales.Anyone interested in reading first hand how our US Congress is willing to allow our judicial system to continue keeping this now 21 year old young man imprisoned for 27 mandatory years for frightening someone with a hand gun(not even injuring the so called victim,) without affording him federal appeal legal counsel to properly be able to defend himself in our Federal courts of Appeal? Manny Gonzales The kid that everyone forgot in the CA prison system can be entered into any WWW search engine for the judicial ride of ones life! Tens of thousands of other Americans being imprisoned in the US are facing this same lack of legal counsel everyday,and with this lack of legal counsel being denied their right to new retrials,which in turn forces thousands to remain endless decades in our prison systems of the wealthiest country in the world!
Just like the German population prior WW2,the American people and our National Media have not felt any concern or interest to speak out about about our country having so many of our fellow Middle Class and Working Poor citizens being falsely imprisoned and not even being afforded the proper Federal Appeal legal counsel to assist in their attempt at exonerating themselves! This situation with the lack of federal appeal legal counsel has gotten so serious,and because it's affecting so many innocent citizens in America, that President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela has even been asked to finance the federal appeal legal fees for the Manny Gonzales federal court legal appeal taking place at the Central CA Federal District Court in Riverside California.

OUR US CONGRESS IS HOLDING 100,000 INNOCENT AMERICAN PRISON INMATES HOSTAGE !!!

NO $$ NO JUSTICE

NO LOBBY, NO US SENATE ASSISTANCE !

NO $$ NO LOBBY == 100,000 INNOCENT AMERICANS FALSELY IMPRISONED IN US.

TENS OF THOUSANDS OF INNOCENT POORER AMERICAN PRISON INMATES NEED INTERNATIONAL ASSISTANCE FOR LEGAL FEES IN HELPING THEM ATTEMPT TO EXONERATE THEMSELVES FROM OUR US PENAL COLONIES!

Most Americans are well aware that there are plenty of innocent poorer US citizens in our prison systems nationwide,but very few of us have ever heard about our US Congressional representatives who are mostly lawyers themselves, denying our Middle Class and Working Poor Americans proper legal counsel for their federal appeals. When any poorer American is charged with a Federal crime all legal costs and appeals are paid for,but when one is charged in the various 50 states and run out of higher court state appeal opportunities and need to appeal to the Federal courts,it appears that these poorer and mostly uneducated prison inmates are left to their own best lawyering skills to attempt to write a federal appeal that could sway a US Federal judge to grant them a new retrial.
Our US Congressional Representatives sleep soundly every night knowing there are reported to be an estimated 100,000 innocent Americans (some residing for decades even on death row) in our US Prisons who have been denied proper legal counsel to help them attempt to exonerate themselves with their Federal Appeals?

WHICH AMERICANS ARE INTERESTED IN PROTECTING OUR INNOCENT US PRISON INMATES RIGHT TO BEING AFFORDED PROPER LEGAL REPRESENTATION ?

TAX CUT$,EARMARK$,
TRILLION$ FOR WAR,BILLION$ IN FOREIGN AID AND WERE TOLD THERE IS NO $$ FOR LAWYERS TO REPRESENT OUR MIDDLE CLASS AND WORKING POOR AMERICANS ? ?

We have all been made publicly aware that Americas 100,000 innocent and falsely imprisoned American inmates nationwide,have no real assistance or protections afforded them by our US Congress concerning their federal retrial appeals!

How in the world can affluent guilty American defendants with proper federal appeal legal counsel,have the greater advantage of receiving new retrials being granted them from our US Federal Judges,then the tens of thousands of innocent poor American prison inmates who are being forced to represent their own federal appeal legal cases from prison??

Innocent but poor prison inmates who are being denied new federal appeal retrials in mass all across our nation,have never had anyone in America interested in focusing on their horror of being falsely imprisoned for decades in the wealthiest nation in the world. Without proper legal assistance being afforded these innocent prison inmates,they will never really ever be capable of exonerating themselves through the federal appeal judicial process!

We ask every caring and loving American to just attempt to put yourself into this same exact situation for just one minute in your mind. Being falsely imprisoned in an American prison for 25 or 30 years without the US Congress affording you proper legal counsel to ever have the slightest opportunity to possibly exonerate yourself using the federal appeal process.

Lawyers for poor Americans has just recently begun our national educational plea for the hearts and souls of the American people concerning this injustice,and our mission of exposing this injustice and freeing all of our innocent fellow Americans from our national prisons, will not stop until our US Congress legislates the needed and proper funding to bring our innocent and missing American prison inmates back home !!!

GED LAWYERS NEVER LEAVE US PRISONS


WHEN GOD'S FACE BECAME RED !

It appears that the US Supreme Court way back in 1984 knew the injustice of our federal appeal retrial review process really only being available for affluent Americans to get benefit from.

The masses of poor and mostly uneducated prison inmates who are being forced to write their own federal appeal legal cases, are being denied new trials by the federal courts in mass all across this country everyday.

Some believe this injustice stems way back in our history to pre Civil War era when the US Southern States were railroading blacks into prolonged prison sentences and knowing all along that the Federal Courts would never grant these poor black prison inmates new trials because they never could properly write their own federal appeal legal cases.

The real horror here is that this form of injustice is even in 2008 assisting in the prolonged false incarceration of over 100,000 innocent mostly uneducated American prison inmates nation-wide.

We all know the federal appeal retrial process was designed for all Americans as a fail safe device that every American should be entitled to utilize, but it is quite obvious that our government has allowed this appeal process to slip into a completely new facade in which it has become an exclusive opportunity for only rich Americans to be able to properly benefit from.

Sadly, the true US *legal* Federal Appeal situation that occurs when any of our uneducated American prison inmates are forced to attempt to submit their own written Federal Appeals (from our prisons nationwide) without the assistance of proper legal counsel, is that they all are in reality being denied their legitimate rights for Habeas Corpus and will win any future Supreme Court Case concerning this injustice!

For our judicial system and our US Congressional Leaders Of The Free World to continue to pretend that this is a real and fair opportunity for our American Middle Class and Working Poor Citizens, only delays the very needed future change of Federal Financing of all these Federal appeals becoming a normal formula of Our American judicial system.

It was not so very long ago that Public Defenders became a Reality in this country.Prior that legal reality taking place, their were also some who thought giving anyone charged with a crime a free lawyer was a waste of taxpayers $$.
