State of Alabama v. John Michael Turner
He was represented by the Mobile Public Defender’s office and was convicted by a jury of a lesser included charge on an indictment that the court lacked the jurisdiction to affirm the conviction and sentence based upon a statute of limitations time bar. The prosecutors office took more than 2 years to indict then dismissed the original indictment prior to trial and reindicted the cases due the prosecutors error in the grand jury in the first indictment. The prosecutor was without supporting case law or statutory law for argument in opposition to the motion to vacate the conviction and sentence.
Mr. Turner’s conviction and sentence were vacated this afternoon.
Some people believe that the system is broken and many people are railroaded. In this case the court heard argument from new counsel after the public defender withdrew. Based on argument, statutory law and case law a serious miscarriage of justice was avoided.
Christine Hernandez was appellate counsel on this case and made oral argument in court following extensive briefing.
Congratulations to Mr Turner on his acquittal!
