The Accused Who Was Killed By Lies And Perjury
The ABC Network had a case last night on 20/20 about a man that was almost convicted of a crime he did not commit. It was a story that could have happened to anyone anywhere. It was a compelling story about how justice goes wrong when one person decides to take one’s destiny into their own hands. It the case last night, March 5, 2010, it was a Medical Examiner that had lied for over thirty years to get people convicted. No telling how many blameless people this man sent to prison or death.
I, too, have a story that parallels that story except this innocent person was executed by the Commonwealth of Virginia. And, it only took them five years to do it. This was a conspiracy of a lot of people, judge, prosecutor, police and defense lawyers. It seems implausible, maybe impossible to you but it occured and I have the evidence it happened. It is undeniable proof because it came from the mouths of the people that carried out this repulsive crime.
In Roanoke County Virginia in nineteen ninety-seven Earl Bramblett was put on trial for his life. It was a crime that happened in nineteen ninety-four. Four people were found dead, murdered, in a house that had been set on fire. The man, husband and father, Blain Hodges was found in bed upstairs in the house and he had been shot once in the head. His two daughters were found in another bedroom and both had been shot twice each in their heads. The wife and mother was found downstairs on a sofa and she had been garroted and her body burned beyond recognition. The conflagration did little structural destruction to the dwelling since all the windows and doors had been shut and the fire was starved from lack of oxygen.
The case was tried in the county seat of Salem, Virginia and heard by Judge Roy Willett. The Commonwealth Attorney of Roanoke County was F.W. (Skip) Burkart and his assistant Randy Leach. Two defense lawyers, appointed by Willett, were Mac Doubles and Terry Grimes.
Let’s start with the defense lawyers. These were two of the most inexperienced lawyers in the Roanoke Valley. Grimes was especially ineffective and well-known for losing trials that should have been effortlessly won. Doubles, on the other hand, didn’t have enough experience to have a reputation yet. During the trial it was evident these two lawyers were frightened by the gravity of the case and were poorly prepared. They had wasted a year, while Bramblett was in the county jail, theoretically preparing for this trial. It was apparent they were incompetent, unprepared and scared.
The Commonwealth Attorney Burkart had prepared for the trial and had his “facts” laid out for the case. These proof were in reality all lies. The lone thing that was a fact that he mentioned was the real crime and the victims. All else was made of whole cloth, lies, and easily proven so if Bramblett had had a honest defense. He and Randy Leach had prepped a jail house snitch to perjure himself by saying he had made notes of something Bramblett shared with him while in jail. That, too, was a lie. Bramblett had not told him anything he swore to in court. Opening and closing were packed with lies had someone been listening carefully.murder
Roy Willett, the judge in the case, sat and oversaw this one sided miscarriage of justice and intimidated the inexperienced lawyers while giving Burkart everything he brought up as proof. A tape made supposed to show the jury how a white truck turned in a “pinkish” red truck under illumination Burkart knew was inaccurate. Willett was supposed to see the trial was evenhanded, but he made sure it wouldn’t be from the start by appointing these incompetent lawyers to represent Bramblett. Then he sat and listened while it was basically a trial from the prosecution side only. Nothing of substance was objected to.attorneys
The lead investigator, State Police Investigator Barry Keesee, testified to conversations he had with Bramblett where no one but he heard. He lied by omission by failing to tell the court he had visited Bramblett’s place of employment the morning of the crime, then testified he thought it was a murder/suicide until that afternoon. He couldn’t reveal the visit because it would have blown the lie about the murder/suicide. His ‘good ol’ boy” attitude and down-home conduct made the lies well-suited for the jury.
So, Bramblett was found responsible, something that shocked no one, and was given the death penalty. Then the same incompetent Grimes “argued” his case before the Supreme Court of Virginia and, as usual, was denied a new (real) trial. His habeas lawyer was Will Lindsey, whom most believed to be an effective lawyer, however for some reason, he joined the cabal and threw Bramblett to the wolves, using the same lies presented in the trial. Lindsey had all the new facts but chose to sweep it under the rug. Bramblett was executed in just over five years from his trial. This kind of fast track executions are reserved for the Oklahoma City bomber and the Washington, DC sniper.
