Missouri Governor Candidate Put Innocent Man In Prison



Kenny Hulshof wanted to be Missouri's governor- "tough on crime" Hulshof touted.


Real tough on crime - Hulshof puts innocent people in prison.

Seems Mr. Hulshof was a BIG party (as prosecutor) to an innocent person getting imprisoned for a murder the person didn't commit.

Worse- Hulshof had been made aware of discrepancies in the case BEFORE falsely imprisoning the man- according to this Associated Press dispatch.

The falsely imprisoned man was Joshua Kezer- 17-years-old at the time he was convicted by Holshof.

According to the AP story- the judge in the case "Cole County Circuit Judge Richard Callahan ruled Tuesday that Kezer, who was 17 at the time of the killing, was wrongly convicted. His 44-page decision included a stinging rebuke of Hulshof, saying he withheld key evidence from defense attorneys and embellished details in his closing arguments."

Sure glad we don't have a half-assed attorney like Kenny Hulshof leading the State of Missouri!
