5
GROUND ONE:

Applicant is entitled to relief based on newly discovered evidence of actual innocence. No

rational jury would have found proof of guilt beyond a reasonable doubt had the new DNA and
other evidence been available.

FACTS SUPPORTING GROUND ONE:

Newly discovered and newly available evidence demonstrates Applicant's innocence. This

evidence is three separate DNA tests definitely excluding both Applicants (Allen and co-

defendant Mozee) as the source of probative evidence from the crime scene. An unknown

person was the source of 1) DNA mixed with the victim's in a distinct drop of blood swabbed

from the front of the store. 2) DNA on the handle of a hammer found next to the victim's corpse,

which contained the victim's own blood on the ball end. 3) A hair underneath the victim's

fingernails. Additional newly available evidence of innocence, includes correspondence from

two jailhouse informants, Lonel Hardeman and Zane Smith, which contradicted their trial

testimony revealing that they had sought and believed they had been promised deals for their

testimony. There is also evidence that these informants fabricated their claims against Allen and

Mozee. Other new evidence is that Det. Berry swore out an affidavit in which he made false

representations regarding the eyewitnesses he had interviewed. Additional newly discovered

evidence is that one of the three store clerks who Det. Berry claimed had identified Allen had

6
actually told another officer she did not get a good look at the suspect and could not identify

anyone. Moreover, there is newly discovered evidence that none of the three store clerks who

allegedly identified Allen as passing the deceased's credit cards actually stands by their

identification and each of them have withdrawn or recanted their identification or expressed

doubts about it. More newly discovered evidence consists of statements from neutral

eyewitnesses describing a pair of suspects seen before and after the murder who did not fit

the physical features of Mozee and Allen. Also, there is new evidence of at least one additional

undisclosed eyewitness interviewed by Det. Berry who gave a detailed description of two men he

saw arguing with the victim shortly before his death. Other new evidence is the fact that

nowhere in the state's files is there any reference to photo arrays containing either defendant

being shown to two eyewitnesses - Scott James and Insun Chon - which indicates that photo

arrays were shown to these witnesses but they did not pick out Mozee or Allen. There is also

newly discovered evidence that Zane Smith had a motive to claim that Stan Mozee confessed

to involvement in this murder: that Mozee allegedly stole Smith's commissary in jail. This
newly discovered evidence establishes that Applicant is actually innocent in that

no rational juror would have convicted him in light of the newly discovered evidence.
Additionally, actual innocence is also established under the Schlup standard as a gateway
to the other constitutional violations alleged in this Application.

7
GROUND TWO:

Applicant is entitled to relief because, by a preponderance, he would not have been convicted

had the new DNA evidence been available at trial.

FACTS SUPPORTING GROUND TWO:

Under Art. 11.073, Tex. Code Crim. Proc., the new DNA evidence in this case provides a ground

for relief. This new DNA evidence was not available to be offered by Applicant at his trial since

it was not in existence. This new DNA evidence identifies DNA from persons other than Allen

or Mozee, in locations where DNA from the persons who committed this murder would be

found. Had this new scientific DNA evidence been available and been presented at trial, on the

preponderance of the evidence, Applicant would not have been convicted.

8
9
GROUND THREE:

The state failed to disclose exculpatory evidence in violation of Applicant's due process rights.

FACTS SUPPORTING GROUND THREE:
The state failed to disclose exculpatory evidence in violation of due process as follows:
1) Pretrial correspondence from informants Hardeman and Smith found in the file of the

Assistant District Attorney who prosecuted this case contains the following exculpatory evidence

which was not disclosed to the defense and which contradicts trial testimony presented by the

state.

a. Correspondence from Lonel Hardeman to the prosecutor regarding his belief that he a

deal for his testimony with the prosecutor. This directly contradicts Hardeman's testimony,

directly elicited by the prosecutor, that he had no deal, understanding, arrangement or

expectation of leniency, did not want a deal and never even discussed a deal.

b. Correspondence from Zane Smith to the prosecutor regarding his discussions with the

prosecutor regarding assistance from the prosecutor with Smith's own legal issues. This also

contradicted direct testimony from Smith, elicited by the prosecutor, that there was no deal,

understanding, arrangement or expectation of leniency. This exculpatory correspondence and
the discussions between the informants and the prosecutor or other state agents was never
revealed to the defense.

10
Because the state lacked any forensic or credible eyewitness testimony inculpating either

defendant in the crimes, and was forced to rely so heavily on informant testimony to prove its

case, the violations here were unquestionably material to the outcome. Moreover, the state's

violations were compounded by the fact that its former lead prosecutor (1) was under direct

pretrial orders from the trial court to make timely disclosure of precisely such Brady material,

and (2) repeatedly and deliberately elicited testimony from both informants at trial disclaiming

any expectation of personal benefit to themselves, even though he knew - as reflected by the

letters in his own file - that this testimony was false.

2. The state also failed to reveal deals, agreements or understandings with the following

witnesses that the state either would or already had assisted them with their own criminal

problems: (a) John Paul Robinson, (b) Cynthia Sloan, (c) Kenneth Jones, (d) Charles Manning,

(e) Alvin Degrafton-Reid, (f) Zane Smith. In fact on Manning and Degrafton-Reid, the police

detective helped them with their probation violations.

3. The state also failed to reveal that the prosecutor interviewed the following two witnesses

who allegedly identified Allen as passing the deceased's credit cards and they expressed doubt
about their identification: witnesses Kwoon and Jang.

11
GROUND FOUR:
State's witnesses testified falsely at trial and the prosecutor failed to correct their testimony or

inform the court of its falsity.

FACTS SUPPORTING GROUND FOUR:

State's witness Lonel Hardeman claimed at trial that he had no deal, understanding or agreement

with the state, that he would receive help with his own criminal cases after his testimony. He

also claimed that he had no discussion about help with his cases, had no hope of leniency from

the state, and did not want any help and would not accept it if offered. All of these statements

were false and the prosecutor knew they were false. Yet, the prosecutor did nothing to correct

this false testimony or inform the court of its falsity. This is a violation of the prosecutor's duty

to correct false testimony and is a violation of Applicant's right to due process.

State's witness Zane Smith also falsely implied to the jury that he had received no help from

the state on his case and expected none. Likewise, state's witnesses Robinson, Sloan, Manning

and Degrafton-Reid all testified that they had no understanding with the state for assistance

on their cases, and the state had not and would not assist them. This was also false testimony the

state failed to correct violating Applicant's due process rights.

12
13
GROUND FIVE:

The State secured Applicant's conviction through the presentation of false testimony from its

lead detective in violation of Applicant's due process rights.

FACTS SUPPORTING GROUND FIVE:

The state secured these convictions through the knowingly false sworn statements of Det. Berry.

Berry had submitted an affidavit prior to trial in support of applicant's arrest where he stated that

he had located three employees at businesses where suspects had attempted to use the victim's

stolen credit cards within hours of the murder. Berry further attested that the three employees

had identified Allen from the photo array. Berry also testified to this. Newly discovered police

reports and notes from the District Attorney's trial file show that these statements were false.

Moreover, Det. Berry had located and interviewed five, not three employees from these

businesses. In fact, not all of them selected Allen's photograph; one clerk did not, identifying a

different suspect.Also, as to the most relevant witness, Insun Chon, who dealt directly with the

suspect and refused to complete the transaction, Det. Berry's reports make no mention of any

array or lineup ever being shown him. This is likely because the identification procedure

engaged in with this witness did not result in any inculpatory evidence.

Det. Berry's credibility was critical to the state's case: he was the only witness to the allegedly

14
voluntary "confession" of guilt made by Mr. Mozee in custody, and he interviewed virtually all

of the state's key informants and eyewitnesses. The new evidence that he knowingly

misrepresented the nature of the eyewitness evidence to the court and jury in sworn statements

undermines confidence in the trial's outcome and requires due process relief.

15
GROUND SIX:

The state failed to disclose favorable eyewitness evidence in violation of Applicant's due process

rights.

FACTS SUPPORTING GROUND SIX:

The state's trial prosecutor also failed to disclose exculpatory evidence regarding

eyewitnesses, in violation of due process and the district court's express pretrial orders.

In particular, the state failed to disclose the fact that Ms. Kyoung Jang, one of the three store

clerks who purportedly identified Allen to Det. Berry, had earlier stated to another detective

that she "could not recognized [sic] anyone in relation to the attempt [sic] use of the

complainant's credit card, as she had not gotten a close look at the individual trying to use it."

This report was addressed to Det. Berry, was dated more than a year before trial, and was part of

the prosecution's trial file, but was never disclosed to either defense counsel. In addition, the

District Attorney's trial file contains a report regarding another key eyewitnesses who also did

not identify Allen or Mozee: Insun Chon, a store manager who refused to complete the

transaction with the man who tried to use the victim's stolen card Yet, there are no reports

reflecting that eyewitness identification procedures (arrays/lineups) were shown to this witness -

despite the fact that Det. Berry showed the defendants'photographs to every other witness

16
who viewed the suspects, including those with far more limited opportunities to view the

suspects than Mr. Chon This strongly indicates that this witness, consistent with the rest of the

investigation, was in fact show the defendants' photographs and did not identify them, but the

state failed to memorialize or disclose that fact to the defense. In fact, a recently disclosed

notation in the district attorney's file indicates that Mr. Chon did not identify either defendant

prior to trial and the prosecutor was aware of that fact.

17
GROUND SEVEN:

The testimony from the informants was false and presented in violation of due process.

FACTS SUPPORTING GROUND SEVEN:

State's witness Hardeman now admits that the testimony he presented at trial was false and that

Allen did not say the things he claimed at trial he said. Moreover, it is clear from the

records that he falsely testified concerning whether he expected to receive any benefits from

the state. Even if the prosecutor did not know of the falsity of the substance of this testimony,

the presentation of this false testimony is a violation of due process.

The Court of Criminal Appeals has previously held that due process requires relief whether new

evidence reveals that a key witness's trial testimony against a defendant was false, whether or

not trial prosecutors knew or should have known of its falsity. Thus, the informant's recantation,

if credited, would provide further grounds for granting the writ (in addition to the considerable

documentary evidence establishing due process violations regarding these informants as set

forth separately in other grounds, supra).

18
19
GROUND EIGHT:
Applicant received ineffective assistance of counsel at trial.

FACTS SUPPORTING GROUND EIGHT:

In an evidentiary hearing on this writ application, the state's prosecutor at trial, Rick Jackson,

claimed that an entry in his notes stating that he showed physical evidence to defense counsel

Jim Oatman, means that he showed defense counsel the letters from Hardeman and Smith

concerning their discussions with the state about help the state would give them on their cases.

Prosecutor Jackson does not claim to remember actually giving or showing defense counsel

these letters. Rather, he relies on this notation of showing defense counsel the physical

evidence as his basis for his claim that he showed the letters to defense counsel. Nevertheless,

the evidence clearly shows that the prosecutor did not show these letters to defense counsel.

However, if the court finds the prosecutor's testimony in this regard convincing, then there is

clear and obvious ineffective assistance of counsel by defense counsel in failing to use these

letters at trial to impeach the testimony of Hardeman and Smith claiming they had no deal,

agreement, arrangement or understanding that the state would assist them in their own cases.

This ineffective assistance would be inadequate performance by counsel and would have

20
affected the outcome of these cases since Hardeman and Smith were important state

witnesses.
WHEREFORE, APPLICANT PRAYS THAT THE COURT GRANT APPLICANT
RELIEF TO WHICH HE MAY BE ENTITLED IN THIS PROCEEDING.

testing-revealing that-person(s) other than the defendant deposited DNA mixedwith the victim's on a

bloodstain at the scene of the crime, in a hair fragment under the victim's fingernails, and on a hammer

found next to the victim's corpse; (2) contemporaneous correspondence from the State's two primary

jailhouse informants, revealing that both men had repeatedly sought. and believed they had been

promised, leniency in their own cases in direct exchange for their testimony for the State, in direct

contravention of their trial testimony and the State's own representations to the jury; (3) exculpatory

eyewitness evidence suppressed by the State at trial; and (4) evidence that the lead detective in the case --

whose credibility was critical to the State's presentation -- had submitted a false pretrial affidavit to the

court. misrepresenting the nature of the_ eyewitness evidence gathered to date. Given the lack of forensic

evidence or credible lay witness testimony connecting either defendant to the crime, had the new evidence

Applicants' acquittals.

GROUND TWO:
Applicants are Entitled to Relief Because, By a Preponderance of the Evidence, They Would Not Have

Been Convicted Had the New DNA Evidence Been Available at Trial.

FACTS SUPPORTING GROUND TWO:
The new DNA evidence set forth with respect to Claim One, supra, also entitles Applicants to relief under

the newly enacted provisions of Tex. Code Crim. Proc. art. 11.073, in that it establishes, by a preponderance

of the evidence, that Mr Mozee and his co-defendant would not have been convicted had the jury heard

that evidence. The State's trial case rested on the uncorroborated "confession" of Mr. Mozee (which was

wrfiten . Ont fOihirri- bYilie lone- -ctetectiVe to whom he- had-allegedly made-these unrecorded-admissions)

which he has disavowed for more than fifteen years, as well as the implausible and self-interested testimony

of a jailhouse informant. For this reason, new DNA evidence pointing to an unknown individual as the

source of key DNA deposits in multiple locations at the scene of this violent robhery-murder would have

readily tipped the scales to acquittal, satisfying the preponderance standard for relief.

GROUND THREE:
The State Failed in Disclose Favorable F.videnre Revrding Jailhniise And Other Informant Wit ne sses, and

Elicited Testimony from the Informants that the Trial Prosecutor Knew Was False, in Violation of Applicant's

Due Process Rights.
FACTS SUPPORTING GROUND THREE:
The State violated Mr. Mozee's due process rights by failing to disclose its communications with at least

two jailhouse informants -- one of whom testified at both trials, and one of whom testified at Mr. Allen's trial.

These rnmmimications pertained to the benefits that both informants expressly son & and believed they had

been promised in exchange for their testimony, including letters sent to the lead prosecutor demanding certain

benefits in exchange fig—testifying and/or seeking to have the State honor promises of assistance-that informants

believed had been given. Testimony by informant Zane Smith at Mr. Mozee's trial, and by the former prosecutor

in this proceeding, Rick Jackson, that Smith had "no deal," whether express or implied, is contradicted by this

correspondence, and by the fact that after both trials were over, the prosecutor went to extraordinary lengths to

benefit Smith. He personally appeared for the State in an "agreed motion for a new trial" for Smith, even after

the time to seek (and the court's jurisdiction to grant) such relief had expired; this resulted in the entry of what

was effectively an illegal judgment and sentence reduction on Smith's behalf.

In addition, the State failed to disclose the fact that the lead detective in this case actively assisted two

other informants, Charles Manning and Alvin Degraftenreed, with probation violations before they testified.

This fact was documented in ADA Jackson's pretrial notes that were only recently disclosed. It directly contradicts his

10
sworn tectimnny in this prnreeding that he never ascictert, nr directed anynne tn accict, a State inInrmant with any

pending criminal matter before the informant testified. This evidence is relevant to assessing the former prosecutor's

credibility on all of the due process issues in this writ, including testimony that the State did not assist informant Smith

with his own pending criminal charges, which were resolved with a highly favorable plea less than three weeks before

he testified.

Finally, newly disclosed materials that predate Smith's plea and his testimony against Mr. Mozee reveal that he

failed to timely disclose Smith's anticipated testimony in violation of_pretrial orders; falsely told counsel on the first

day of trial that he had only been contacted by Smith "in the last few days"; and violated pretrial orders to disclose

Smith's written statements.

Former ADA Jackson admitted in this writ proceeding that he was obligated to provide this information to Mr.

Mozee's counsel, yet he has no recollection or record of doing so. Because the State lacked any forensic or credible

eyewitness testimony inculpating either defendant, and was forced to rely so heavily on informant testimony, the

violations here were unquestionably material to the outcome. Moreover, the State's violations were compounded by

the fact that its former lead prosecutor (1) was under direct pretrial orders from the trial court to make timely

disclosure of this material, and (2) elicited false testimony from informants at trial disclaiming any expectation of

future personal benefits to themselves.

11
GROUND FOUR:
The State Secured Applicants' Convictions Through the Presentation of False Testimony from Its Lead

Detective in Violation of Due Process

FACTS SUPPORTING GROUND FOUR:
The State violated Mr. Mozee's due process rights when it secured his conviction through the knowingly

false sworn statements of Det. Rick Berry. Det. Berry submitted an affidavit prior to trial in support of co-

defendant Allen's arrest, in which he represented to the Court that he had thus far located "three

employees" from the various business at which an unknown suspect, accompanied by a second man, had

-
- —attempted-to-use the-victim's stolen credit cards within hours of the murder._ He fuither atfeited that he

had shown defendant Mr. Allen's photo to each of "the three employees" he had identified from these

locations, at which time they "all picked the defendant's photo as the person who had used the credit

cards." He then repeated this alleged chain of events to the jury in sworn testimony at Mr. Mozee's trial.

Newly-disclosed police reports from the District Attorney's trial file reveal that these statements

were false. In fact, Det. Berry's own reports show that when this affidavit was submitted, police had

interviewed five -- not three -- employees from the various businesses who had witnessed the use of the

stolen cards. Moreover, not "all" of them selected Allen's photo: one clerk did not (identifying a different

suspect), and the lineup report for the fifth (the store manager, who had the most direct contact with the

12
suspects) was never produced and may never have been prepared.

Det. Berry's credibility was critical to the State's case: he was the only witness to the allegedly

voluntary "confession" of guilt made by Mr. Mozee in custody, and he interviewed virtually all of

the State's key informants and eyewitnesses. The new evidence that he misrepresented the

nature of the eyewitness evidence to the Court and jiiry in sworn statements undermines confidence in

the trial's outcome and requires due process relief.

13

,
GROUND FIVE:
The State Failed to Disclose Favorable Eyewitness Evidence in Violation of Due Process.

FACTS SUPPORTING GROUND:
The State's former trial prosecutors also failed to disclose exculpatory evidence regarding eyewitnesses, in

violation of clue process and the district court's express pretrial orders.

In particular , the State failed to disclose the fart that Ms Kyniing Jang , one of the three store clerks who

purportedly identified Allen to Det. Berry, had earlier stated to another detective that she "could not

-anyo-rie-in relation to-the- attempt [sic] use-of-the-complainanes-credit card,-as-she had not -

gotten a close look at the individual trying to use it." This report was addressed to Det. Berry, was dated

more than a year before trial, and was part of the prosecution's trial file, but was never disclosed to either

defence (-mince! Tn addition , the District Attorney's trial file contains reports and notes reprding at least

one other key eyewitness who also did not identify Mr. Allen or Mr. Mozee: Insun Chon, a store manager

who refused to complete the transaction with the man who tried to use the victim's stolen card. Yet there

are no reports reflecting that eyewitness identification procedures (arrays/lineups) were shown to him --

despite the fact that Det. Berry showed the defendants' photographs to every other witness who viewed the

suspects, including those with far more limited opportunities to view the suspects than Mr. Chon.

14
Recently obtained pretrial notes from Mr. Jackson's trial file also indicate that (1) Mr. Chon did not identify

Allen or Mozee as the perpetrator, and (2) Mr. Jackson met with several of the eyewitnesses who made the

allegedly positive identifications shortly before the defendants' trials, yet did not call them as

witnesses. This undisclosed exculpatory matherial further undermines confidence in the coutcome of the

trial.

15
GROUND SIX:

Applicants Were Cnnvirterl nn the Rasis of False Testimnny hy Jailhnnse Infnrrnants Requiring Due Process

Relief Even if the Witnesses' Perjury Was Unknown to Prosecutors

FACTS SUPPORTING GROUND:
Two State informants -- Lonel Hardeman and Zane Smith -- have given voluntary interviews to

Applicants' counsel in which they admit that they gave false testimony at the trials of Mr. Mozee and Mr.

Allen. Smith has specifically admitted what was already indicated from the newly disclosed file materials:

that he falsely testified when he claimed to expect no personal benefits from the State in exchange for his

•
feti m oriy: in fkt, liehéliêved he had been specifically promised -by tharial - prosecutot th-arth-e- Statewould seek • -
- —

a sentence reduction on his behalf after he testified. Testimony by Smith at trial, and by the former prosecutor in

this writ proceeding, that they had no express or even implied "deal" is further undermined by the fact that after

both trials were over, ADA Jackson went to extraordinary lengths to obtain the promised benefit for Smith, by

filing an "agreed motion for a new trial" even after the time to seek (and the court's jurisdiction to grant) such

relief had expired, resulting in the entry of what was effectively an illegal judgment and sentence reduction on

Smith's behalf.

The Court of Criminal Appeals has previously held that due process requires relief where new evidence

reveals that a key witness's trial testimony against a defendant was false, whether

16
or not trial prosecutors knew or should have known of its falsity. Thus, the informants' recantations, if

credited, would provide further grounds for granting the writ (in addition to the considerable documentary

evidence establishing due process violations regarding these informants as set forth separately in Ground Three,

supra).

-

17
GROUND SEVEN:
Applicant Received Ineffective Assistance of Counsel at Trial

FACTS SUPPORTING GROUND:

Applicant received ineffective assistance of trial counsel in at least three respects:

(a) Counsel failed to object to hearsay testimony elicited by the State from Det. Rick Berry that

three store clerks had "identified" Mr. Mozee's co-defendant, Dennis Allen, as the person who used the

victim's stolen credit card on the night of the murder. Counsel also failed to conduct a reasonable pretrial

—investigation- into-these alleged-identifications, This lack of diligence-allowed-the-State to- improperly-argue -

in summation that the identifications of Allen corroborated Mr. Mozee's custodial "confession," which greatly

prejudiced Mr. Mozee. Indeed, at Mr. Allen's trial (when this hearsay testimony was not used), nape

of the three store clerks actually identified Allen: one clerk recanted his earlier alleged identification, and the

other two clerks did not testify.

(b) Counsel failed to challenge the voluntariness and truthfulness of Mr. Mozee's custodial

"
confession" when he failed to obtain and introduce recent medical records showing that Mr. Mozee had a

documented history of serious mental illness, including schizophrenia, that made him susceptible to giving a

false and involuntary confession. Counsel also failed to retain a qualified expert on false confessions or

18
otherwise present evidence to help the jury understand why the "confession" lacked any indicia of truthfulness

or reliability. This ineffectiveness greatly preiduced Mr. Mozee because it allowed the State to argue in

summation that there was no evidence he suffered from mental illness, that he was feigning symptoms of

mental illness, and that his signed confession was voluntary and reliable.

(c) At an evidentiary hearing on this writ application, trial prosecutor Rick Jackson admitted that

he had no specific recollection of showing Mr. Mozee's counsel the letters received from informants Hardeman

—_- and-Smith-regarding
__ _ __the-benefits-they
. expected
_ _ to receive
_ _ from the-State in-exch-an
_ - for-theite-stimony;--nor
•. __

did he have any file notation corroborating his belief that he must have fulfilled his obligation to Mr. Mozee's

counsel to disclose this correspondence to him. The evidence establishes that the prosecutor did not show

these letters to either defense counsel. However, if the court finds the prosecutor's testimony in this regard is

convincing, then there is clear and obvious ineffective assistance of counsel by defense counsel in failing to use

these letters at trial to impeach the testimony of Smith claiming he had no deal.

agreement, arrangement or understanding that the state would assist him with his own plea and sentence, or to

seek a new trial for Mr. Mozee based on the letters and the false testimony given by the various informants at

both trials. This ineffective assistance, if proven, would be deficient performance by counsel and would

undermine confidence in the outcome of the trial.

GARY A. UDASHEN

Affidavit in Support of Applications for Writ of Habeas Corpus - Page 2
STATE OF TEXAS
AFFIDAVIT
COUNTY OF DALLAS

BEFORE ME, the undersigned authority, on this day personally appeared Stuart Parker,

who, after being by me duly sworn, upon oath said:

My name is Stuart Parker. Jam an attorney licensed in the State of Texas since 1975. I am

board certified in criminal law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.

I knew Jim Oatman, both personally and professionally. Mr. Oatman was a highly skilled

and conscientious attorney, both as a prosecutor and defense attorney. He put a great deal of effort

into his work and was uniformly viewed as someone who did a very good job for his clients. He was

not only a great courtroom lawyer, but was also known as someone who was well-prepared and

thorough when it came to pretrial discovery and preparation.

I have been asked to comment on the following factual scenario. These facts have been

provided to me by Gary A. Udashen and my comments are based on the information Mr. Udashen

has provided to me.

In the year 2000, Mr. Oatman represented Dennis Lee Allen on a capital murder case. During

trial, the state presented two informant witnesses: Witness one, Lonel Hardeman, testified that he

had spoken to Allen and Allen had admitted being involved in this murder. At the time of trial,

Hardeman was in jail with pending cases. At trial, Hardeman testified that he had no expectation

or hope of leniency from the state in exchange for the information he had provided against Allen.

The testimony from Hardeman at Allen's trial included the following:

(Mr. Jackson - Prosecutor)
Q :	Mr. Hardeman, do you have any expectations — what are your expectations
for testifying in this case?
A: Nothing, just to bring a closure to Mr. Boms' death. That's it.
Q. Okay. Have I told you that we would talk about maybe doing something in
your case after this was over?

Affidavit of Stuart Parker - Page 1
A. No, sir.

(Allen T.T. Vol. 3, p. 266.)

(Mr. Jackson - prosecutor)
1 2
Q :	So [Lisa] kind of passed the word to Berry that you wanted to talk to him?
A: Well, she stated to him that she knew about the case and for all charges
[to] be dropped against me, that she would testify against Dennis Lee
Allen. And when Rick Berry came to me, I only told him what I knew. I
didn't know nothing else was going on.
:	Okay. So she kind of negotiated in your behalf', kind of like an agent I guess;
Q
is that right?
A: Yes, sir.
:	Okay. If all charges were dropped you would testify against Dennis Allen?
Q
A: Correct.
:	Okay. But you really didn't want any part of that, did you?
Q
A: And I still didn't [sic].

(Id. at 272) (emphasis supplied).

(Mr. Jackson - prosecutor)
Q: You and Mr. Berry didn't talk about what might be in it for you; is that right?
A: No, sir.
(Id. at 269.)
•••
(Mr. Oatman - defense lawyer)
Q: And you really don't want any help from Mr. Jackson here for doing the right
thing by coming down here; is that right?
A: That's right.
:	And I take it [if] once this case is over, Mr. Jackson came down and told your
Q
judge, hey, he helped us out on a capital murder case, you're going to go no,
Mr. Jackson, I don't want your help. I want to face these two life sentences
on my own because I am such a I good soul; is that right?
A: Due to the fact that I never done a robbery before. I'm not going to ask Mr.
Jackson for no help.
:	Okay.
Q
A: Because truthfully I can stand on the stand just like I am today and beat those
robbery cases, because I never done a robbery before.
:	Going to beat them, aren't you?
Q
A: I put it in the Lord's hands.

(Id. at 274-75.)

'Lisa was Hardeman's girlfriend.

'Berry was the police investigator.

Affidavit of Stuart Parker - Page 2
After the Allen trial, upon review by Innocence Project attorneys, letters from Hardeman to

the prosecutor were found in the prosecutor's file. These letters were in the prosecutor's file at the

time of the Allen trial. These letters included the following statements:

I Lonel Hardeman Jr. is writing you because I truly feel that I'm being used by the
Department against crime. After turning over true statements, letters, and affidavits
to your departments to Detective Rick Berry about the April 7, death of minister Jesse
Borns; Willing to testifie [sic] against Dennis Lee Allen, a man that I only been with
since Sept. 18, 1998 till today of Aug. & Sept. ... From day one Mr. Rick Berry
was told from me and others for the information and the things he collected from
me all charges against me to be dropped since all allegations are not true. On
August. 27, 1999.
Mr. Rick Berry stated that he would help me like I helped him; Ms. Crum this would
be the second murder case I've helped the Department on with true facts and
statements, and willing to continue. I feel as though with the cooperation that I
give and the jepordy [sic] of my life that you should release me back to my
family. Mr. Ken Penrod and Alvin Pereze are the other two men that knows that I am
honest as well as lain you should[.] I spoke with you before. Laying here in jail on
charges I didn't commit is wrong, Like I said I'll do whatever it takes to convict
Dennis Lee Allen, Taking the stand won't be a problem, All I ask is for my life
back with my family. I help you once I'll help you again. Ms. Linda Crum from this
letter I wish to hear from you as a response to my letter and freedom; I thank you for
in your time out to read this letter and pray to God that this incident come to an
closing of the truth and righteousness of Justice. Say hello to 1 Ken and Mr. Pereze
as well. Yours Truly, A man that wants his Freedom.. .Lionel Hardeman Jr....God
knows who lieing[sic] ....and who's telling the Truth...
(Letter from Hardeman to Capt. Crum, dated Aug. 29, 1999).

Dear Sir: With all respect and honor to you I Lonel has been thinking of the issue of
the Dennis Lee Allen case. I'm wanting to let you know that I know that we can
come to an agreement on the cases pending against me for the testimony against
Dennis Allen. I know that 1 if I don't agree to testifie that I would be facing trial in
my behalf. I rather do time if I have to and not be number as a snitch than to do time
on "Death Row" wondering who's waiting to kill me for talking against Dennis L.
Allen and yet I still do time. I can't live that way. In 1998 I help the homicide unit
solve a murder [illegible] and I had 4 charges against me then and if the 1
District Attorney agreed upon a deal with me then I know you can [illegible] no
different from any other District Attorney! Mr. Ken Penrod and Alvin Perez is the
two that helped me then I know somewhere you and I can come to an agreement
for my testimony for the Dennise [sic] Allen trial. All I'm asking for in the return
of my self is for the 3 robbery cases be droped which I know for a fact I didn't
do, and state jail probation 2 years for what I did do and sign befor I step on the
stand so when I step down I'll be back in the arms of my family and not having
to worrie if I'll ever see Dennise [sic] L. Allen for a while. This is not a lot to ask

Affidavit of Stuart Parker - Page 3
for, I still will be accepting a conviction and I know I would have to walk very lightly
for the rest of my life. Other than this don't call me back, I don't want to waste
your time nor mine.

11 have a family to that loves me; I have childrens as well that care for me; Dermise
[sic] is a man that I know would come after 1 me if he had a chance; Im risking
myself, family and friend by standing trail against him; Im bring Justice to a family
that lost a love one behind a person with no moral; I think for what I'm asking for
is not even enough but is acceptable to ask for, I've been here once remember that
in 1998 murder case I know it can be done, I'm willing to tell the truth if your willing
to give my life back to me. I thank you for your time and patients and tell Douglas
Shopmeyer God is watching his children every step of the way. God know Imdtw-7
telling the truth and soon the court will to someway some how. . ..You can't Hide the
Truth! You have the Right man now lets put him away! God Bless you.
(Letter from Hardeman to ADA Jackson dated Feb. 14, 2000).

1Dear sir: My agreement with you is soon to be over...with you or without you I
know I can win my case along with out jepeordising [sic] my life as well as my family
lives because I never done any robbery what so ever and Im willing to go to trial now
because I can't keep waiting on another man trial that keeps on being
reschedule. My state jail time is about up and yes Im on parole; Im not afraid of what
I have to face, cause I am innocent.

When found innocent I'm facing maybe a little more time if any at least I know
something is being done, so I can go home. Im tired of 1 of laying here knowing I can
win my case than to wait on a man that is guilty. I have a life and a good family and
childrens that loves me. We can't keep waiting on another man when I can take
care of my own. Long as I been here I could have been to trial and home and if I
have to be here past my state jail time than I rather go to trial cause Im not going to
keep on waiting any longer on another man that keeps being set off I hope you
understand. Im not going back on my word but Im not going to keep waiting on
him either if I have to come to court from the free world then I will but this waiting
and waiting no more People can't even let me know what's going on I have to hear
about it from T.V. You people tell me one thing and there's another I don't know
what to think or do no more, I need my lawyer to contact me "ASAP" I have a lot of
question that need to be brought out to you and him. Please contact me; thank you.
(Letter from Hardeman to ADA Jackson dated July 7, 2000).

1 The District Attorney's file also contained letters that Hardeman's girlfriend wrote him while

he was in jail. The following are excerpts from these letters:

What are they talking about doing on your cases? Are they offering probation at all?

Oh!!! This is what I wanted to talk to you about. One night right after you had left I
was sitting on the steps alone drinking and shit and these 2 white men passed by. I felt

Affidavit of Stuart Parker - Page 4
like they were cops but I didn't give a shit right 5 minutes later they stopped in front
of me and started questioning me and shit about what I was doing and so forth.
Anyway after we talked a minute he said you seem educated and all this. Then he
said that they were homicide detectives working on the case of the minister that
got robbed and killed. He gave me his card in front of everybody right. I look
at it and tear it up. He ask me if I wanted to make some money, I said yeah. He
said if I come up with anything to call him. Well I didn't tell him what I knew.
He told me what he knew. He said he looking for a black man that hangs where
I was sitting with receding Salt-n-pepper hair in his late 30's to early 40's that
goes by the name Stan. I told him I'd ask around but I didn't know much. But I
know who did it Lonel. I called Marvin and asked him to get in touch with the
detective to see if I could talk to him in exchange for lesser sentences for both of
us. But I do know 100% who did it. Do you think I'm doing the right thing? About
talking to the detective? He hasn't come to see me yet so maybe Marvin didn't even
call him but I sure would like to get in touch with him. Maybe you can find someone
on your end to get in touch with him. His name is Detective Rick Berry--DPD
homicide division. If you contact someone who can get him, tell him that I need
to speak with him regarding information on the homicide case on the minister.
Maybe he can do something for us because I do have some pertinent information
for him. And I don't care about telling it because I don't plan on being in the South
Side like that ever again. I'm looking out for me and my baby, fuck the rest.
(Undated letter from Lisa Davis (Hardeman's girlfriend) to Lonel Hardeman, at pp. 7-9) (emphasis
supplied; typographical errors in original).

Anyway I am sure you have heard about D.A. He has been charged with the death of
the preacher I have been telling you about. He was p/u [picked up] 2 Saturdays ago.
That's why the detective didn't come see me because they had him already. Plus
he has 2 robbery charges pending. One of them is aggravated. It's in this past
Saturday's paper. I will try and send that to you.

So you know what that means huh? You probably can prove that he was the
mastermind of that hustle. I sure hate that for him but you now have a better chance
on your cases boo.
(Undated letter from Lisa Davis to Lonel Hardeman).

I understand that one question the court is considering is whether the prosecutor had given

these letters to Mr. Oatman, either during or before trial. This question has arisen because Mr.

Oatman is deceased and unable to answer the question. I also understand that there was no reference

at all in the trial to these letters.

Based on my knowledge of Jim Oatman's skills and dedication as a lawyer, Tam certain that

he would have used these letters to impeach the testimony of Hardeman if he had been given them

Affidavit of Stuart Parker - Page 5
by the prosecutor. Any competent lawyer would have used them, and since Mr. Oatman was not just

a competent lawyer but an outstanding one, I am sure he would have used them at trial. Based on

the fact that Mr. Oatman did not use these letters to challenge the testimony of Hardeman, my

conclusion is that he was never given them by the prosecutor. In addition, had Mr. Oatman been

shown the letters by the prosecutor prior to trial, I have no doubt that he would have requested that

copies be made so that he could have had them available for impeachment purposes at the time the

witness testified, and that he would have used the letters for that purpose during trial.

Additionally, at Allen's trial, the state called a jailhouse informant, Zane Smith, who testified

that Stanley Mozee, Allen's co-defendant, admitted being involved in the crime. During Smith's

testimony at Allen's trial, it was revealed that he had written a letter to the state in which he claimed

that Mozee confessed to the murder. However, the state apparently did not reveal that Smith had

written a second letter to the District Attorney immediately after the Mozee trial, but before the Allen

trial, that stated the following:

1 Dear Prosecutor, Jam writing this letter in response to the issues we discussed on the
Mozee trial. Sir I was also scheduled to go to my parole lhearing the day I was
supposed to testify, that's why I didn't get to speak to you before I came in to testify.
Mozee has been sending word by other inmates telling them I'm a snitch and also
telling me that he's got my address and that he's gonna get me. Sir I am not too
worried about those issues but what I'd like to know is -- Will you still be able to
intercede on my behalf as you said. Sir I would appreciate any efforts that you can
help me with in this matter. Please notify me if possible. Sincerely, Zane A. Smith.
P.S. I've forgotten your name.
(Letter from Smith dated Aug. 2, 2000).

1 This letter contradicts Smith's testimony at Allen's trial where he indicated that he had

already been sentenced in his own case and did not reveal that he was expecting more benefits from

the state than what had already been received.

Based on my knowledge of Jim Oatman's skills and diligence as a lawyer I am confident that

he would have used the letter from Smith to the prosecutor to make sure the jury knew that Smith

Affidavit of Stuart Parker - Page 6
was expecting assistance from the prosecutor based on his testimony at trial, and that Smith had

immediately asked the prosecutor to deliver on that expectation immediately after he testified at co-

defendant Mozee's trial.

In summary, Jim Oatman was an outstanding lawyer and I am certain that he would have

used each of these letters at the Allen trial had he been provided with them. In addition to using

these letters to impeach both Hardeman and Smith, it is also my opinion that Mr. Oatman would

have used these letters to powerful effect during his closing argument (for example, to argue more

broadly that the State's evidence and witnesses could not be trusted because at least two of its

informants had already been shown to have given false testimony about undisclosed expectations

and personal benefits).
