Missouri governor: Pardon of 4-decade inmate not a priority
Republican Missouri Gov. Mike Parson says addressing the clemency petition for Kevin Strickland is not a “priority,” even though prosecutors say Strickland didn't commit the triple murder that put him behind bars more than four decades ago...
Several state lawmakers from both sides of the aisle signed a letter seeking a pardon for Strickland...
Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker has called for his release.
Federal prosecutors in the Western District of Missouri, Jackson County’s presiding judge, Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas and members of the team that convicted Strickland also have said he deserves to be exonerated.
"What if we just let out all the innocent folks!
Them bastards'll sue yuh!"
