New DA in Fulton County Georgia – 2021

For a long time, Fulton County has had Paul Howard as its District Attorney. We believe that it has been Paul Howard along with at least one former Atlanta Police Detective that led the misconduct in the Scott Davis case. In 2020, Fani Willis defeated Howard in a strong fashion. We wish her the best in Atlanta.

Willis has promised to look at cases that had misconduct under the Howard tenure and we hope the Scott Davis case will be one of them. We don’t know but the case has all the hallmarks of misconduct and a wrongful conviction. Howard is under investigation for many ethical and criminal issues. We only can wish that he will not be given a pass and that he will be treated as any other “subject of interest” would be treated. We’ll see in 2021.

The Conviction Integrity Unit in Fulton County will have its chance to prove if it is in fact really going to look at this case fairly from a real person’s unbiased perspective – rather than just being a unit in name only. Again, we will see.

“A Reasonable Jurist…” needed. Apply here

This is a quote from the Scott Davis appeal ruling…

“While each of the state’s actions and/or omissions, including non-
compliance with SOPs and preservation statutes, do not independently constitute
evidence of bad faith, 

a reasonable jurist might conclude that the cumulative
pattern presented here indicates that Petitioner was denied a fair trial.

See
United States v. Lopez, 590 F.3d 1238, 1258 (11th Cir. 2009).

I respect Judge Amy Totenberg for saying these words. What I hope is that some judge will also GRANT his appeal and change the so called Youngblood standard of bad faith to allow a cumulative analysis of bad faith and misconduct.

This case is really simply outrageous. How can you let this kind of misconduct, perjury, destruction of evidence, and general due process destruction in a case that gave Scott Davis a life sentence?

Look at this case. Read the rulings and the documents. Look at the videos.

We need your help and I need your help. This case needs to be a new precedent that will finally stop the abuse of police and prosecutors with destruction of evidence that the Youngblood case has allowed for years if not decades.

ORDER ADOPTING AS MODIFIED

 

Mixed Ruling in Scott Davis case

I am posting a disappointing ruling in the Scott Davis appeal from the federal district Court in Georgia, but I am hopeful that the court will rectify the Injustice on the really granted soak to the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals.

The court was clearly troubled by all the police misconduct and lost evidence in the case. I believe she wanted to grant the appeal but couldn’t fit certain legal reasons which might get rectified. New evidence of misconduct during this appeal was not properly confused on my humble opinion either.

Regardless, we will continue the fight for Justice.

We believe that the will be strong issues on appeal that are of national legal significance. We got that national advocacy organizations will join on Amicus curiae briefs in the case so please contact us if interested.

Here is the ruling:

Why does law enforcement in Georgia have AFIS if they don’t want to use it in a murder case?

The answer is that they didn’t want to find other suspects since the prints didn’t match their suspect…

It’s just another example of gross police misconduct in the Scott Davis wrongful conviction.

Rick Chambers dirty cop?

Scott Davis Wrongful Conviction

Does altering evidence and lying on the stand to falsely convict someone make you a dirty cop?

 

 

 

Seems even Rick Chambers’ partner says he is lying and so is the Fulton County District Attorney

 

New book background

Here is a draft of what we have been working on.

Here is a news story about the case in the book.


I saw this case originally on 48 Hours Mystery and was enthralled. Scott Davis was one of the people who ran for California Governor against Arnold Schwarzenegger in 2003.

My impression was and is that he is innocent. Why run for Governor if you murdered someone? You don’t at least if your smart and by all accounts Scott is very intelligent.

So, I researched this with some help.
