In his most recent attempt, Strickland had well-known innocence attorneys who filed his petition with rare and overwhelming support from Jackson County s prosecutors, Kansas City s mayor and others who called for his exoneration and release. They have determined Strickland has spent four decades in prison for a triple murder he did not commit.
Yet on Tuesday, the Missouri Supreme Court declined to hear Strickland s case. The state s highest court did not provide a reason in its one-page dismissal. ....
