Skakel Lawyers Say They've Uncovered Secret Evidence

Sounds like a Democrat controlled election recount. Keep uncovering or finding things until you get the results you want.

If they hurry this up, maybe he could run for the Senate in Connecticut.

Who’s ultimately responsible for putting Skakel away?
Detective Mark Fuhrman.

He was dead-on in the OJ trial, which the prosecution poorly presented to an illiterate and unwilling jury.

Years later, he wrote the book and assembled the evidence used against Skakel.

"Convicted celebrity murderer Michael C. Skakel says he has uncovered secret evidence suggesting his innocence and is using it to support an unusual effort in federal court to obtain release from prison while his appeals proceed through a variety of courts."

The evidence was found on the Island where Elvis and JFK are kept.

I cannot begin to tell you how much I detest this man.

Members of my family have had “incidents” with him and his legal shennanigans prevented one of my godmother’s closest friends from attending her funeral.

death is too quick for him.

The law firm of Santos & Seeley, P.C. is one of the most preeminent and well-respected trial and appellate firms in Connecticut. Hubert J. Santos opened his office at the current location in Hartford in 1974 after having served as an Assistant Federal Defender for the District of Connecticut for two years. Hope C. Seeley joined him in practice in 1989.

Skakel complains of treatment in prison.

Michael Skakel complained in letters to his cousin George Skakel III of a lack of medical treatment, appropriate temperatures in prison cells and unusually harsh treatment afforded him by prison officials.

“I have always received harsher treatment than anyone from day one,” Skakel wrote in a letter dated Nov. 13.

George Skakel, 52, an investor who lives in Greenwich, is Michael Skakel’s first cousin, who, in a letter to the editor printed in last week’s edition of Greenwich Post, urged Greenwich residents to read an article written by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Skakel’s first cousin.

In the article, Kennedy, an environmental lawyer and former prosecutor, makes a case for his cousin’s innocence.

In one letter, dated July 22, Michael also appears to express regret for hiring Michael Sherman, who defended him at trial. Kennedy criticized Sherman in his article, saying the attorney seemed more interested in basking in the media limelight than getting Skakel acquitted.

“George, I am sorry to say that you were right on all accounts with regards to my legal representation,” Skakel wrote. George said Michael was responding to George’s comment that hiring Sherman was a mistake.

In his letters, Skakel focuses heavily on his son, George Skakel IV, in his letters, saying he prayed with a priest for “Georgie” and complaining that the prison’s visiting hours make it impossible for him to see his son.

“The solitary cells here were well over 100 degrees, coupled with not getting my heart medicine, [that] was a serious recipe for disaster. I was told and confirmed (sic) that a man my age died of a heart attack on the same block three months ago. He apparently complained for four days about chest pains. Well, we know the rest.”

Skakel also complained of not being allowed to attend Alcoholics Anonymous meetings and not being able to attend church often.

Skakel also said he was denied dental care.

“I bit into something and broke my teeth three weeks ago. I am told it will be eight months before I can see a dentist,” he wrote.

Stephen Skakel, Michael’s younger brother, said Monday that Michael had some issues regarding his incarceration but they had since been addressed.

A lot of people have been really surprised by Michael Skakel coming out and saying he is a changed man, he is a religious man, God is by his side.

JOHN MOXLEY, MARTHA MOXLEY’S BROTHER

Too little too late. You know, I’m sure everybody there is a little good and a little bad.

I’m sure that Michael — this may sound harsh, but without booze and alcohol, booze and drugs and what have you, know, and his counseling A.A., he would have nothing else. I was a little surprised, quoting his — talking about his ex-wife being rough like his beard. You know, somebody said — and I don’t know how appropriate this is — but you know, everybody in jail and foxholes has religion. You know, I think part of, you know, being a good Catholic is confessing to your sins, not running from them.
