Mother Who Served 22 Years For Killing Her 4 Year Old Son, Released - Framed
By Corrupt Cops

Debra Jean Milke of Arizona spent 22 years on death row for a crime she did
not commit because a crooked cop set her up. A US Circuit Court of Appeals
judge overturned 'Death Row Debbie's' conviction because the lead detective,
Armando Saldate, made up a confession and lied under oath, saying Milke's
admitted killing her four-year-old son. Cops, man. If they're not shooting
home intrusion victims, shooting 64-year-old men to death for trying to
surrender their pellet guns, or going undercover to bust autistic kids for
pot, they're lying to secure convictions of innocent women.
The judge took the Detective Saldate's word over Milke's, even though
prosecutors knew he had lied under oath and/or violated the suspects' rights
during interrogations at least eight times. Prosecutors decided to cover up
his past misconduct and use his testimony even though they're legally
obligated to turn over exculpatory evidence to the defense. His testimony is
all they had, since he had destroyed the notes from the confession, hadn't
tape recorded it and there were no witnesses. Milke was convicted even
though she was refused a lawyer.
Murderpedia reports: "You know, I have never seen a case where there has
been no signed Miranda waiver," said Judge Alex Kozinski of the United
States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, in San Francisco, at a
hearing on the case in August 2008. "I don't know any place in the civilized
world in the last 30 years," he added, "where a state has found a waiver of
constitutional rights without a signed waiver."
She maintained her innocence the entire time.
Milke was on track to be the first woman executed in Arizona since the 1930's
for shooting her son in the back three times and dumping his body in the
desert for $5,000 in life insurance money. But she was never part of the
crime, and learned of his death while Saldate interrogated her. Her
boyfriend, Roger Scott and his friend, who was known to suffer from PTSD
from Vietnam, killed her son.
Does this case make you question how police departments deal with detectives
who are known to lie or make you question the wisdom of the death penalty
when lying cops are tolerated?
