Wrongful Conviction Presentation an Obvious Success

PETER WARREN's presentation as well as the presentations given by three family members of wrongfully convicted men was a complete success. Those present, including the media were appalled that convictions in our system could happen this way despite the evidence that clearly shows these men are NOT guilty of the crimes that they are paying for.

It was, for me, a great experience to meet the family members of Michael Tate and Kelvin Purdy and to hear their stories. The parallels in all three cases are uncanny with "missing evidence", "police tunnel vision" and "conviction by the media", just to name three. Yes, the list goes on. But, the biggest thing we all have in common is that we will NEVER give up fighting, we will NEVER be quiet and we will see JUSTICE!!!

Thanks, Peter, for your endless work in organizing this and for the media interviews regarding our cases before and since the presentation.

You were superb in your presentation at the University of Victoria in March. Let us now both hope that our efforts lead to positive action although, as you are aware, these things take t-i-m-e !
Well done. PETER WARREN
