The Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals is known to have denied McMillian's appeal  even when Stevenson had made his argument that there was no reliable corroboration of Myers' testimony and also under Alabama law.

  • The reason is that the State could not depend  totally on the testimony given by an accomplice, as there was an incidence of prosecutorial misconduct and also racially discriminatory jury.

  • Yes, he seems more reliable as a witness now than when he was put on the stand based on the fact that he was not influenced into giving any kind of fabrication of facts but due to his stand to tell the truth.

  • Payne vs. Tennessee is known to be a 1991 case that decided that a testimony given in the form of a victim impact statement can be taken in or admissible in any kind of sentencing stage of any trial and also in death penalty cases. I believe it is good or justified.

Thinking back to chapter 5 of "Just Mercy" i am hopefully now for Walter’s release because he is innocent and deserve to be given justice.

<h3>What is the message of Just Mercy about?</h3>

Just Mercy is a book written by Bryan Stevenson and talks about his wrongful conviction and his fight for his freedom.

The book centers around  America's faulted criminal justice system and makes us as humans to tackle these inequality and injustice.
