An AG who keeps people behind bars just for the "finality" of it really has no business being in criminal justice.
@wesleyc.4937
If they can't "solve problems" they have no business dispatching justice.
@dortchem
KKK Bailey
@johnnytwotimez
That AG needs some prunes in his diet. Thats the look of constipation.
They gotta take a serious look at this case and they gotta get it right and they gotta pause everything while it all plays out
@donaldday9811
okay everyone just stop, this is a bad dude, look at his record, look at the evidence, he confessed to 3 people, the victims purse, and laptop, and personal items was in his car, he wore the victims jacket to conceal the blood from his girlfriend, look at the evidence, and read the case

TAINTED DNA MEANS CASE DISMISS
@martyclement4010
Bailey needs to go!
@MichaelKolbe-xn2cp
Judge knows the dirt in the system and probably against the dirt by the sounds of it .
@thesungod2360
He's a KKK member duh
@CrimeForCrime
I’m sad to be Missourian with a silly AG like this. What a fool. He’s a real pos.
@rayblox4859
Not his DNA was found. This case had a bad judge and a lawyer.
@GregLakatosChradm
The AG needs to be tried.
@TheAimhi
Convictions aren't the same as justice. The AG should be seeking justice – period. If it is unjust to keep an innocent person in captivity – what the AG should be seeking is to rectify the wrongdoing, not to uphold injustices.
@MkasheJoy
Release him😭😭
@Peter-b7h
MISSOURI VOTERS???
