Yesterday the Arizona Court of Appeals ordered a lower court to dismiss charges against a former death row inmate. Debra Milke was previously convicted of arranging the murder of her son.
For another perspective, we turn to Mel McDonald. He’s a former Maricopa County Superior Court Judge and U.S. Attorney for Arizona. He’s also a partner at the Phoenix law firm which represented Debra Milke, although he was not involved in the case.
