Innocence in Mississippi

Ongoing problems with wrongful convictions, incarceration; MDOC and CMCF, a joke? Steven Hayne, MD? Governor Barbour, is he accountable to the citizens of this State? If so, in what capacity?

You might ask me why I'm doing this?

Well, I can answer that in a very short sentence. Because it is the right thing to do. Wouldn't you want some help if you were in this situation? Wouldn't I? Of course we would! So, I'm doing it because it's the right thing!

Keep reading; follow along; give me your feedback, even if you don't agree; but take a stand! That's what's important here! Take a look at this article in Reason Magazine by Radley Balko; google this "doctor" and see what you find out!

    Charles Flores: Death Row Texas: (Yet another abominable Texas death penalty case based on ignorance - or is it willful disregarding - of science, or both? HL): Charles Flores is seeking a new trial because his conviction was based on flawed hypnosis, The Death Penalty Information Center (DPIC) reports, noting that, "Attorneys for Mr. Flores argue that he should be grant­ed a new tri­al because of changes in the under­stand­ing of wit­ness tes­ti­mo­ny and changes in law regard­ing the use of hyp­no­tized tes­ti­mo­ny since 1999."..State Senator Juan “Chuy” Hinojosa explained to The News that “experts in foren­sic psy­chol­o­gy have for years raised con­cerns that hyp­no­sis does not work as a mem­o­ry-recov­ery method and it does not increase the accu­ra­cy of eye­wit­ness recall and recog­ni­tion.” By 2020, crim­i­nal tri­als in approx­i­mate­ly half of the U.S. pro­hib­it­ed or strong­ly lim­it­ed “hyp­not­i­cal­ly-induced tes­ti­mo­ny” because of con­cerns with wrong­ful con­vic­tions. The News report­ed that since the 1980s, the Texas Department of Public Safety used inves­tiga­tive hyp­no­sis in crim­i­nal inves­ti­ga­tions at least 1,700 times, lead­ing to prison sen­tences for dozens and death sen­tences for oth­ers. Experts iden­ti­fied for The News four con­cerns with the use of hyp­no­sis by Texas law enforce­ment in crim­i­nal inves­ti­ga­tions: sug­gestibil­i­ty affects sub­jects, crit­i­cal-think­ing abil­i­ties may dimin­ish, “con­fab­u­la­tion” occurs when sub­jects fill mem­o­ry gaps with fic­tion­al events, fab­ri­cat­ed mem­o­ries can solid­i­fy through “mem­o­ry cemen­ta­tion” over time.".
