Austin scientist attacks arson convictions

Gerald Hurst, a chemist and inventor , offers his services for free to help individuals he feels were wrongly convicted of arson.

[Concerned]

Quote:
Hurst, 72, was the first investigator to conclude that Willingham was convicted based on bogus arson evidence. Though his report came too late to delay the execution, Hurst's findings were later confirmed by eight nationally recognized fire investigators — launching a politically charged battle over the morality of capital punishment and leading Gov. Rick Perry to deride interference from "latter-day supposed experts."

*****
David Martin, the defense attorney for a man some say was wrongly executed tells CNN's Anderson Cooper that his client was guilty.

Isn't this attorney the same one that represented the cops that brutally assaulted the “Hispanic man” and got away with probation even though the autopsy report concluded “homicide, blunt force injuries”?

He sounds more like the prosecutor in that video.
