Ladies and gentlemen, of the jury we are here today to find justice for the deceased, Chris Pavano who was shot and killed by the defendant, Jordan Abrams. Today I and the state of New Jersey ask you to ask yourself, if your child or your friend’s child suddenly never came home would you want their to be justice for their murderer? Would you want their murderer walking free while you or your friend mourned for the person they murdered. If you, the jury allow Jordan Abrams to walk free than that will just show other murderers that they can get away with such a heinous crime. Jordan Abrams stands accused of murder in the 1st degree, aggravated manslaughter in the 2nd degree, reckless manslaughter in the 2nd degree, possession of a weapon for an
Even when Michael’s new defense team, through the innocence project, found a crime that was eerily similar to the method of murder and subsequent events to the one that Michael was convicted of, the new prosecutor in Williamson County fought hard to keep DNA testing from taking place, even stating that they objected to the testing now because the defense hadn’t requested it before (Morton, 2014). There was further evidence of ineffectiveness in that the coroner who’d changed his estimated time of death between the autopsy and trial, had come under scrutiny for his findings in this case, as well as several others, with claims of gross errors “including one case where he came to the conclusion that a man who’d been stabbed in the back had committed suicide” (Morton, 2014). This was only one of the many injustices that were committed against Michael Morton throughout his trial. In August of 2006, the defense was finally granted permission to perform DNA testing on the items that had been taken from his wife’s body (Morton, 2014). Although this testing did not reveal any information about the guilty party, it did at least give Michael the knowledge that Chris was not sexually violated before or after her death (Morton,
James. A.Williams or otherwise known as, Jim Williams, was a good man, for the most part. He was a well known antique dealer, who was highly respected by all who knew him. He had played an active role in the restoration of Savannah’s Historic district downtown, starting in the mid-1950s. Jim Williams was also well known for his “ have to be there,” christmas party that was always held the day before the Cotillion debutante ball.
I believe that if this was tried again that David Goodreau would still be found guilty. Only because when he confessed he knew certain things about the crime that ordinary people wouldn't known. There were defiantly problems with the investigation, Starting with the fact that the police didn't even peruse the murders of the two girls. Another problem with the investigation was that the police never really looked or found any evidence at the crime scenes. David Goodreau was sentenced to life in prison with out parole.
On the other side, the Respondents argued that the death penalty was not extreme compared to the crime he committed, it was constitutional, and that race didn't play any role in the decision. In the case of Gregg vs. Georgia, I rule in favor of Georgia because the decision of the death penalty did not violate the 8th amendment, his race did not play any role in the court's ruling of death penalty, and letting him live is more inhumane than killing him.
Wayne Williams was found guilty of the killing of two people. Even years after William’s still tries to persuade the idea of him being innocent. Just like fingerprints, hair analysis is following the same path. I think that DNA fingerprints will become bigger and more accurate of accusing killers, the use of hair analysis will decrease, but I do not think hair analysis should be taken away.
Authorities assume that he has shocked early in his life, but no mental disorder. Williams was Sentenced to three consecutive life sentences without parole on July 17, 2008. The nature of crime were rape, mutilation, and dismemberment. Scott Williams had no nickname given. There were 3 victims who were killed and 2 victims who were kidnapped.
Dear Jury Members: Mr. Bennett should not be found guilty of murder because there is reasonable doubt. Although the Prosecution claims he is guilty, they are wrong because, Mr. Bennett while checking Mr Adam's pulse touch the spilled coffee, that Mrs. Ried would inherit the house and Mr. Alfoaro has rat poison, and Mr Adams had poor eyesight. First, Mr. Bennett went to go check his pulse to see if he was dead and touched the spilled coffee in the process. Mr. Bennett told the authorities that he touched the puddle of spilled coffee when he knelt by Mr. Adams when he was checking his pulse.
The fiber evidence presented in this case was so overwhelming and simply was the driving force leading to Wayne Williams conviction. I do not believe the prosecution would have been able to obtain the same results without it. The credibility of the FBI forensics investigators and their reputable crime lab made for excellent testimony concerning the fiber evidence at trail, which the defense was simply ill prepared to counter attack its merits (The Atlanta, n.d.). Other evidence was presented in this case, and much of this evidence while certainly impactful on the case and to members of the jury, this evidence alone without the fiber evidence would surely not have held up to the standard of beyond a reasonable doubt.
There is Robert Grinder, James Neely, and James Wilkinson. According to “Exhibit D”, Grinder was the one that shot Lewis in the stomach and the back of his head. Grinder left with a great deal of money. Although the judge was saying that there wasn’t enough proof, the district attorney referred to money a lot while the victim was left with none. James Neely is another possible suspect because of his letter.
Williams is denying the crimes he committed. Stanley Williams was violent person growing up because of his child hood and the founder of a gang named Crips. Williams states " I am innocent and, yes, I have been a wretched person, but I have redeemed myself." This quote means that Stanley is denying what he did and is claiming that he is innocent but is still expressing how he changed from how he was before. One may think that even though he is denying his crimes, he still chenged from them, This supports my claim because it shows Williams is denying his crimes.
The trial of Casey Anthony was one that struck the nation in a very emotional manner. The trial was on TV for months before anyone could come out with any real answers, and even then, they weren’t the answers they were looking for, and half of them were made up. In the end the jury decided to find her not guilty, while everyone else’s opinion was that she was a cold blooded killer. Unfortunately the proper evidence just wasn’t there in the end to convict her for the first degree murder of her 2 year old daughter Caylee. This being said, if I was on the jury I would definitely have found her guilty because of the, in my opinion, extremely odd behavior that came from Casey during the entire process.
Williams was born on December 28, 1953 in Shreveport Louisiana. His mother was seventeen when he was born, and his father left the family when he was a baby. By the time Williams was a teenager, he had developed a reputation as a vicious street fight.

In 1979, Williams convicted of four count of murder and sentenced to death.as an imager at sanquentin state prison, Williams spend 61/2 years in solitary confinement because f assaults on guards and other inmates.
OJ Simpson is Indeed Innocent “If it doesn’t fit, you have to acquit,” this quote said by one of OJ Simpson’s attorneys, Johnny Cochran, is widely known for its impact on the controversial case of OJ Simpson. From 1994-1995 OJ Simpson was known as one of the most controversial cases in the USA due to the verdict that OJ was innocent of the murders of his ex wife and one of her friends. On June 12, 1994 Nicole Brown Simpson and Ron Goldman met an untimely demise, and the only suspect the police ever reviewed was OJ Simpson. OJ was later caught in a low speed chase in a white Ford Bronco before being taken into custody and put on trial. In the sensationally controversial court case involving OJ Simpson as a suspect for murder, The innocent ruling
However, these truly came into question when it comes to Stéphane Parent investigation. This will be a trial in which Parent will be accused of the cold case death of Adrienne Mccoll. This is truly a heart-wrenching case. This criminal law case had much precedent set before it so it will not be hard for the case to have a ruling and the expectation is that according to that everyone must be treated equally under the law. Now for my position, this is a cold murder case where the defendant has not provided a statement defending himself nor has his lawyer released a testimony on his behalf.
