The attorney learns that seized documents, which would have proved his innocence, have been destroyed and other records supposedly have been lost or so they say. His defense attorney begins proceedings by spreading tobacco over the courtroom--an Indian ritual to curse the prosecution, or so he claims. The defendant’s former client's wife commits perjury to avoid prosecution, all the while concealing that she has an IRS agreement allowing her to keep their drug money and property, tax free, in exchange for her testimony. The young lawyer is convicted and sent to prison. Years later, he learns how he was unjustly convicted when a retiring Special Agent friend he used to work with mails him boxes of IRS and FBI records, along with grand jury documents. Using these, he investigates his own case, and learns how the judicial system was manipulated. https://www.johnolivergreen.com/about daily 0.75 2022-02-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ea21a11e97ef7a534febe0/1385294a-6209-49a1-9f69-b5e7978ff044/JohnOliverGreen-Badge.jpg About - About the Author John Oliver Green was born and raised in Oklahoma.

As the Supreme Court held back in 1895: “The principle that there is a presumption of innocence in favor of the accused is the undoubted law, axiomatic and elementary, and its enforcement lies at the foundation of the administration of our criminal law.” COFFIN v. UNITED STATES, 156 U.S. 432 (1895). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61ea21a11e97ef7a534febe0/8cecbbfa-b0ad-495a-82fe-8db6a6027988/BarredJustice Home BARRED JUSTICE A Memoir of Innocence and Deceit by John Oliver Green A vengeful federal agent, a vindictive judge, and suspects wanting a deal — blame the attorney. In 1982, a young Oklahoma tax lawyer is well on his way to success — a Vietnam veteran, a pilot, and a former IRS Special Agent. He receives a disturbing call from the wife of a friend, a fellow pilot, and a client. To his dismay, he learns of his friend’s secret life as a smuggler. She tells him his friend has crashed in Mississippi while flying drugs from Columbia and pleads for him to go on a rescue mission in the hope that her husband might still be alive. So begins a “no good deed goes unpunished” story. The lawyer quickly finds himself caught between a vengeful IRS agent with a personal grudge and a cartel leader who wants him dead. With his life in mortal danger, he flees to Texas till things sort themselves out. While there, he is indicted and arrested. Without bail, he is shuffled from jail to jail and denied medical treatment while agents try to get a confession out of him. Although ultimately offered a misdemeanor, he refuses and demands a trial, believing justice will prevail. The judicial system is setting him up for a fall, but it will be 30 years before he learns the truth.
