There was no physical evidence that proved McIntyre murdered the two victims. He did not even personally know them. The conviction was apparently based on the false testimony of the prosecutor and police. Before McIntyre’s mother, Rose, declared in an affidavit that she was forced by Golubski in a sexual act which transpired inside his office. He continued to harass her for weeks following the incident. After Rose left and changed her number, she believed that Golubski wanted revenge by convicting her son of murder. Another affidavit also accused district attorney Terra Morehead, the prosecutor assigned to the case, of using intimidation to talk to witnesses. At the same time, she happened to have a romantic relationship to the judge presiding over the case, J. Dexter Burdette. The three key people involved in the case, Golubski, Morehead, and Burdette were never penalized for their actions. Currently, Golubski is now retired, Morehead is a federal prosecutor, and Burdette is still a judge. According to the city’s black leaders, the black community do not fully trust the police after McIntyre’s conviction. Meanwhile, Dupree is putting up a conviction integrity unit in the D.A.’s office to turn wrong accusations right. Read the original story via The Community
Kenneth Dascoli filed a complaint against Arthur Kelly, Esq., on August 10, 2015. Dascoli alleges that Kelly deprived him of a fair trial in a criminal matter, essentially due to lack of preparation.

“I agree with Ms. Krejci that the entire file should have been disclosed with the publics record request, but that does not make it discoverable.” Feeney said. “I understand her frustration that she wasn 't given the same information that another defense attorney was. When I discovered what had happened, which was in august, I immediately requested the entire file from the Phoenix Police Department so that I could disclose it to the defense council. I didn’t do that because I believed that the information was discoverable or relevant. I did it as a professional courtesy. So that we were on the same field, and so that she felt that she had everything tha...
Probably No. Under Ohio Duty of Care Owed to Trespasser Statute, an owner is liable if he knows of possible children trespassing and the artificial condition on the property creates unreasonable risk that children do not realize, when the burden to eliminate the risk is slight, and the owner fails to exercise reasonable care to eliminate that risk. In this case, Oleg Burov left the hot tub unlocked and only covered it with a thermal blanket. Burov, the last person on the property, knew of possible trespass on the property after spotting wet towels, relocation of the metal table, and traces of bicycle tires on his property. The evidence gave Burov a reason to believe that minors might have entered his property. Moreover, the hot tub on the property

Facts of the Case: McCurdy a dispatched who worked for Arkansas State Police Communication Center, filed suit for sexual harassment against Sergeant Hall, which happen within an hour time period inside of her work place.
After a second trial in which the prosecution was allowed to argue for the first time that the murders were motivated by racial revenge, Carter and Artis are reconvicted; the same life sentences are imposed, and they are forced to return to prison.
When police officers are perceived as being racially motivated, where certain groups of people are being targeted, it undermines the social goals of policing, weakens residents’ cooperation with police and raises questions about the legitimacy of law (Fagan & Davies, 2000). Supporters also back up this claim with statistics that show an association between racial/ethnic groups and crime (Harris, 2003). The arg...
Undercover officers were placed in areas within Spokane were prostitution was known to an issue. It was on the night of November 20th, 1998 that police finally had a suspect. Yates was pulled-over by police after he picked up a prostitute. Note that he was driving a Honda Civic and not a white Corvette in this encounter. During this incident the police were unable to arrest either of the two because they said that Yates had come to pick her up to take her home. Yates was off the hook for now. It wasn’t until nearly a year later in the fall of 1999 when Yates was connected to the
According to Dr. Carl S. Taylor, the relationship between minority groups and police in the United States has historically been strained. Some cities have a deep and bitter history of bias and prejudice interwoven in their past relationships. The feeling in many communities today is that the system pits law enforcement as an occupying army versus the neighborhood. Dr. Taylor wrote about easing tensions between police and minorities, but stated “If there is any good news in the current situation, it is that the history of this strain has found the 1990’s ripe for change.
Most importantly, the allegations of sexual harassment bring into question the consensual nature of his advances. As Rubin explains "A democratic morality should judge sexual acts by the way partners treat one another, the level of mutual consideration, the presence or absence of coercion, and the quantity and quality of the pleasures which they provide.
In today's society An increasing amount of African americans believe black males lives are not valued in the american criminal justice system because a growing amount of police officers have not been indicted for the murders they committed. If police officers are not indicted for the crimes they commit why would a police officer fear the consequence of indictment when most police officers don’t receive formal indictments.
These are not the only reasons for urgency to find a killer; the Solicitor General of Atlanta’s circuit, Hugh M. Dorsey, desperately needed a successful conviction because he had recently failed to convict two accused murderers. He was concerned about putting together a case that would hold up in court; no matter what lengths he had to go to in order to accomplish this. Overtime, it became obvious that Dorsey did not necessarily believe that Frank was guilty, but recognized that the political values of his position were uncertain.
Similarly, the deep mistrust that minorities have for police officers is another problem that must be solved for the City to be able to achieve racial harmony. Like the questions raised before, this situation also raises some questions. Why don't the citizens trust the police officers? Did one force the other, or is it a mutual mistrust and fear?
