"...Attwon Thomas was and had done absolutely nothing... Defendant Hawkins snatched the 'victim' from the arcade and fatally shot him in the chest because he was angry at Thomas for cursing his father."
"[11; 11; 11; 11]."
During the eight days of deliberations jurors sent several requests to the judge, requesting further instructions and guidance on the relevant trial evidence and for more instructions on "self-defense" and "defense of property". The trial court shunned each of the several jurors' requests. And on the final and eighth day of the jury deliberations, jurors sent the following request, asking the court:
"We the jury in the above entitled action, request the following:
'Does obtaining the gun without the intention to kill eliminate a verdict of voluntary manslaughter?'"
This is August 22, 1985
/s/ Ronald E. Lacy, Foreman
Department 116
Within a few hours of the trial courts calculated refusal to answer this final request, jurors rejected my self-defense plea and rendered the unjust verdict of guilt. This foregone unearned reality.
My defense lawyers, Ianis A. Rader and Stephen L. Schwartz, faithfully and ably plea the cause of truth in the interest of justice.
The falsely charged double capital murder complaints had also been assigned to be adjudged by Judge Lew. But after being the recipients of his calculated unjust rulings, my lawyers filed a motion which disqualified Judge Lew therewith.
