"Supreme Court rejects inmates' right to have DNA test; Rules officials, states must set own policy" by Robert Barnes, Washington Post | June 19, 2009
WASHINGTON - Prisoners do not have a constitutional right to DNA testing after their conviction, the Supreme Court ruled yesterday, even though the technology provides an “unparalleled ability both to exonerate the wrongly convicted and to identify the guilty.’’
And the COURTS are NOT INTERESTED, huh?
So IT IS about the STATE'S CONVICTION no matter what and not the TRUTH!
Something we Americans have suspected for a LONG, LONG TIME!
The case at hand comes from Alaska, one of three states without a law allowing postconviction access to biological evidence. The others are Massachusetts and Oklahoma.
Oh, I AM SO EMBARRASSED -- and ANGRY!
I DON'T WANT TO HEAR ROT-GUT, SELF-ADULATING, S***-C*** Massachushitts LIBERALS and their SMUG SELF-RIGHTEOUSNESS ever again!!!
William Osborne was convicted of the 1993 rape and assault of a prostitute in a secluded area near the Anchorage International Airport. Osborne wanted to pay for a more discerning test of semen found in a condom at the crime scene, which prosecutors agree would almost definitively prove his guilt or innocence. But prosecutors refused to allow the test....
Yup, all in the SEARCH for the TRUTH!!
How do you like your AmeriKan justice, 'murkn?
