The ACLU has launched a new and unusual campaign - Find Habeas -- http://www.findhabeas.com/. It's a sort of Where's Waldo meets Where in the World is Carmen San Diego blog posting, personifying habeas corpus as a little green man. Blog postings in Red are "fictional" habeas spottings in various states.
I'm just waiting for the Habeas siting in Virginia.
Habeas would be lynched in Virginia. Come on. Virginia wouldn't allow people who were exonerated to have there convictions overturned until a few years ago. (And for those like Earl Washington who were coerced into a plea, we still haven't made any progress.)
Virginia wants finality regardless of innocence, just ask Ken Stolle or Rob Bell.
