B-J-T-J discovered 16 months ago- This story is unbelievable. These are the 2 Innocent men in John Grisham's The Innocent Man. Ronald Keith Williamson was the main character and Dennis Leon Fritz was his co-defendant, who wrote his own story in his book The Journey Toward Justice.Book book came out in 2006. Excerpt: While we at Bubbaworld commend U.S. District Judge Frank H. Seay for having not only the wisdom but also the courage to act to right a gross injustice we also condemn the criminal justice and appellate courts system of Oklahoma for gross incompetence as well as a total disregard for both the law and the US Constitution. Each had before it the identical information which led Judge Seay to overturn the convictions of Williamson and Fritz. Each had the power to order DNA testing. Each had information which even without the results of DNA testing clearly indicated that the men failed to receive a fair trial. Each had the facts which pointed to a travesty of justice and which led Judge Seay to state: "God help us, if ever in this great country we turn our heads while people who have not had fair trials are executed. That almost happened in this case." Why then did the Oklahoma criminal justice and appellate systems fail so miserably? Why was the state so ready and eager to execute an innocent man? The answers to these questions are best found in the words and actions of District Attorney Bill Peterson, who prosecuted the murder trials.
