Cory Maye to get a new trial

Published December 3, 2010 9:22 am by Claire

I missed this yesterday. The Mississippi supreme court has granted Cory Maye a new trial (pdf).

This is thanks largely to the heroic journalism of Radley Balko and the skilled representation by Bob Evans and Maye’s other pro bono lawyers.

And it’s damned good, if terribly overdue, news. Hope for justice for this very nice young man.

    I’d like a way to do more than hope.

    I feel for this guy… I’m not sure about this new trial either…smokin one of these “offiziers”is a big no-no…even when they earn it…
