Back With a Whimper

This is the way the blogging resumes,
This is the way the blogging resumes,
This is the way the blogging resumes,
Not with a bang but with a whimper.

(100 meaningless points to the person who can identify the cultural reference.)

A lot has happened since I went dark.

Jason Williams was executed by the people of Alabama.
Donald Beaty was executed by the people of Arizona
Gaylord Bradford was executed by the people of Texas

Robert Simon, Jr. was granted a stay of execution by the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals

The Texas Forensic Science Commission sidestepped a finding regarding Cameron Todd Willingham. Governor Rick Perry is going to celebrate the whitewash by running for president of the United States.

David Wayne Spence is back in the news, in a dead sort of way. I scored him as 94 out of 100 on my Actual Innocence Scorecard.

The Supreme Court overturned Delma Banks death penalty. I previously scored Delma Banks 57 out of 100 on my Actual Innocence Scorecard.

Judge Kevin Fine threw out a jury's murder conviction and his own sentence.

Antonin Scalia got wrapped up with math once again, and it didn't work out.

Unfortunately, you missed the details because I was off doing whatever.  I didn't even complete whatever, and I still have a hell of a lot of work to do on whatever, but I'm going to try to ease my way back into blogging.

With all the heavy duty stuff that I missed and I should now be writing about, I'm going to take the easy way out. I'm going to write about Will Foreman and his traffic tickets.

Did I mention he beat another automated ticket in court?

Stay tuned.
