Temujin Kensu's Commutation Hearing Adjourns!

September 20, 2010. After 2 days and a total of 26 hours, the Michigan Parole and Commutation Board adjourned the hearing for Temujin Kensu. Before closing, the Assistant Attorney General, Scott Rothermel, made his decision known that he would not be recommending commutation. The Board, of which 8 out of the 15 members were present, is a different story. One member, Paul Condino, promised to read the entire 2000 page transcript of Temujin’s trial, and they all have voluminous amounts of material to read and ponder before arriving at their recommendation, which will then go to the Governor for her final decision.

Over the next several days and weeks, members of PI, who were in attendence, will be writing articles about what they witnessed. Rather than rushing to produce these, we will be taking time to give careful analysis to what we witnessed. As most of us have other full time jobs, we thank you for your patience in our reporting.

For Those Desiring PI to look at Your Case

 

At this point in our development, PI is only taking on cases in cooperation with other innocence projects. If you have been wrongfully convicted and your case involves DNA evidence, we recommend you contact the Michigan Innocence Project at Cooley Law School. If your case does not involve DNA, please contact the Michigan Innocence Clinic at the University of Michigan Law School. For cases outside of Michigan, here is a list of innocence projects by state.
