James woodard was not one of the three men. But the prosecutors in the trial hid that evidence from probably a very inexperienced courtappointed attorney who did not have it to share with the jury or the judge. And james was locked up no physical evidence connects him to the crime whatsoever. So i very much agree with you that prosecutorial misconduct needs to be looked at for all of the damage that it has done. No one is seeing prosecutors come forth and apologize to the men, and a lot of them are still living who prosecuted these cases. I would like to say in Michael Mortons case, we did get a slap at the judge in that case. And the Michael Morton law in texas was established. Ive not met mr. Morton, but i have written about him. So i think were starting to see a little bit more progress in that area. I remember bill hills tenure, if thats what you want to call it. It was very troubled. But thank you. Power and privilege has a lot to do with this. These people protect each other. Rem
