Hughes News: Quick Update 2

This may be the last of the quick updates.

Yesterday, Preston Hughes filed a pro se Chapter 64 motion for DNA testing. A nearly final version of that motion, without exhibits, is here.

Preston Hughes also filed a motion for stay of execution while the Chapter 64 motion is being resolved.

Today, Preston Hughes filed two civil suits in federal court against separate government entities in Texas for their violation of his constitutional rights.  One of those suits, the one against the City of Houston is here.

Details to follow after I take some time off.

I won't close this post, however, without noting my admiration of Ward Larkin for all that he has done to right this and other wrongs.

Thank you for the update. I will be following this case closely and keeping my fingers crossed from the other side of the pond over the next few days. Maria.

Great work as usual. I am not counting Preston out just yet.
