Movie Of The Week?

Another eye opener program from Mike McIntyre, host of "Crime and Punishment" when he interviewed investigative journalist, Peter Warren on Sunday about information he has found in regards to Leon Walchuk's wrongful conviction. Leon's estranged wife's relationship with a RCMP officer, who by the way, was the first cop at the scene that fateful night, was compared to that of a "movie of the week". Movie of the week?? I say more like a bad soap opera!

The Innocence Project

By request of the Convictions Review Group, Leon Walchuk has provided them with written permission to release information to The Innocence Project. The Innocence Project is an organization from Osgoode Hall Law School in Toronto, ON, where law students volunteer their time examining cases of wrongfully convicted people. They also assist with investigating, proof finding and legal assistance. The Innocence Project is currently aiding Leon by researching the mounds of legal documents, trial transcripts, and of course the new scientific evidence that proves Leon was wrongly convicted.

Welcome to our new Blog

Since there will be many advances with Leon's case in the next few months, we've decided to create a blog in hopes that it will be an easier way for everyone to stay current. His case is currently being reviewed by the Convictions Review Group and by the end of summer we hope to hear that it has passed to the investigative stage of the review process. The new scientific evidence is exculpatory and proves Leon's innocence.
