District of Columbia

I was present at this trial. The police conducted very sloppy witness interviews and provided almost no other evidence on the man. They absolutely did not meet the burden of proof for a conviction.

The real question that should be asked is why the police did not collect what would have been common sense evidence from witnesses, call witnesses they were expected to call or adhere to best practices with their witness interviews.

No jury would have convicted this man in the evidence submitted.
