I have a friend who is being wrongly accused of something he hasn’t done, and is currently incarcerated behind it. The court appointted attorney that he has, does not have his best interest in mind. The attorney met with my friend once in the last 3 or 4 months and when my friend’s family inquire about the case the attorney gives them the run around. My friend and his family can’t afford an attorney, so they have pretty much given up hope of him ever coming home. So if there is anyone who knows anyone willing to help my friend, please let me know. Any info or help would be grately appreciated.
