The lack of humanity is some people is amazing. Pro, you sound like a sociopath. You lack respect for the rights of others.
Scott, in addition to the abhorrent behavior of Preston I hope you expose every detective,, every in-take state attorney, prosecuting state attorney, State Attorney, Judge, defense attorney, and investigator in all the Preston cases who let these injustices make it to the next level.
It is sad that this farce could make it through so many levels. Mob mentality at its finest. Expose them all!

Public Defender to play Crusader at the
expense of people sitting in a county jail needing a Public Defender.Ask the State to hire 3 public defenders to review all the "dog" cases. If the state doesn't the county can raise the property taxes to fund the cause.

Is this "expert" Preston not liable for his erroneous testimony? If an eyewitness gives false testimony and it is proved otherwise are they not found in contempt of court and punished?
Procurator has a point that this should be reviewed by someone other than the public defender. The state attorney general should be going after Preston and all those who collaborated with him.

Well, being the sister of the 4th man
faslely imprisioned because of John Preston and his magic dogs, I must tell you , he (Preston) has passed away as have some of the key people
invovled in this case. It has been a
long 25 year road to try and get the
approriate people interested in my brothers case. He has been living a "NIGHTMARE" in Fla.'s prision system and has of now barely survived
it. As his family , we also have lived the same "NIGHTMARE" working
over the years with limited money
and resourses to prove his innocence.
We are elated with the recent newspaper stories and discussions
going on about his conviction and
the steps being taken FINALLY to prove his innocence. Please , contact
your governor, state officials, etc.
and let them know how you feel concerning the judicial system in Fla. and the need for a REAL LOOK
at the way its run. We thank all
those people who have made this
look in to my brothers case possible
and hope that it may lead to helping
others also falsely accused.

Yes, expose them all!
And call it what it is--mob mentality, Groupthink, good-ole-boys-loyalty networks seem to be some apt descriptive phrases.

<quoted text>States are never quick to admit wrong-doing and even more slow to release innocent people even after proven to be innocent. I also think that some resources need to go into solving the original crimes here, considering that Preston was used to convict more than just these three or four - that means that there are many unsolved rapes and murders out there that now have to be considered "cold case" crimes and should be solved.

<quoted text>what about the fact the REAL guilty person is out there scott free. The reason the state does not want to go back and do the right thing is simple money they know we know and now you know it. This man need to be freed and anyone who this man ans his magical dog convicted at the very least deserve a new trial. Injustice is injustice there was a time in Florida a defendant did not even get a Lawyer a man named Clarence Earl Gidieon changed that forever just because its is expensive to right the wrongs does not make it exceptable .

With limited state funding the Public Defender is using his resources for past crimes rather than for people that he is supposed to be defending today ?
