A judge in the 36th Circuit Court of Van Buren County, Michigan (Paw Paw) granted Mitch’s client a new trial. Mitch’s client had been convicted of first degree premeditated murder and felony murder back in 2017 after being charged with murder for the tragic death of two of her children from a house fire back in 1992. She was tried and convicted in 2017 but Mitch took on the appeal and after a five year battle and multiple evidentiary hearings he was able to persuade the trial judge that his client was denied the effective assistance of her trial attorney at her trial and this attorney’s mistakes were so bad that she did not get a fair trial. She had been serving a sentence of life without the possibility of parole. Now she has a second chance at justice and regaining her freedom.
