UNREAL. This bastard goes out and rape murders a woman,
and now ALL THIS TIME LATER?
He's apparently been SUCH A GOOD INMATE that we won't follow through with
what the jury chose.
How do you know you are living in an INSANE WORLD?
Just watch the criminal justice system in America!

Officials release death row
inmate's records
By Bob Johnson • The Associated Press • July 20,
2010
Alabama prison officials turned over records for
death row inmate Michael Jeffrey Land on Monday
after lawyers went to court saying the information
could help stop his scheduled August execution.
The American Civil Liberties Union had filed a
complaint in federal court in Montgomery saying
prison officials had refused to release information
showing Land has been "an exemplary inmate."
They said the documents could be used in Land's
petition to Gov. Bob Riley seeking clemency.
Alabama prison spokesman Brian Corbett said
corrections officials delivered the records to Land's
attorneys Monday afternoon.
Along with the inmate files, Department of
Corrections attorney Scott Rouse said in a letter to
Land's attorneys that all documents in Land's file
were included in the release.
Rouse said in the letter that corrections officials
were not conceding that Land had a right to the
documents or that disclosure was required by state
law.
Rouse asked Land's attorneys to dismiss the lawsuit.
Land was convicted in the May 1992 killing of 30-
year-old Candace Brown. She had been missing for
several days when hikers found her body in an
abandoned limestone quarry on Birmingham's
Ruffner Mountain.
ACLU attorney Allison Neal confirmed the files were
turned over to attorneys for Land on Monday
afternoon.
Neal said she would wait to decide whether to
dismiss the lawsuit until Land's attorneys had a
chance to review the file.
