death row column questions

1) Alfred Brown shot Charles R. Clark.
2) He said he was at his girlfriends apartment and he did shoot or rob anyone.
3) October 2005, Brown went to death row.
4) Wednesday, May 14, 2014
5) His alibi was that he was at his girlfriend's apartment that morning.
6) He said he made a call but he was really cleaning up from the murders.
7) They found phone logs for his girlfriend's apartment.
8) They didn't turn over the evidence to help the defense.
9) Judge Ellis signed an order for a new trial.
10) Everyone is entitled to a fair trial.
11) I think it will not end well for Brown.
12) It is written with a background of the story and then the details of it. I think this is a typical column because I think it is a topic that interested the writer even though it didn't interest me.

  1. 1. He was convicted of killing (not just shooting) Clark and also store clerk Alfredia Jones.
    6. Why did this alibi fail to sway the jury? Because they had not evidence and his girlfiend testified against him (she said she was pressured). Your answer makes it seem like he committed the murders and Falkenberg's entire column suggest that he is innocent.
    8. No. The prosecutors had requested the records, and they were not provided to them.
    9. No. The appeals court did nothing for nearly a year.
    10. So what does she want to have happen in Brown's case?
    12. The style is detailed but she also writes in a conversational way with short sentences and even some functional fragments.
    I can tell this column did not capture your interest. Your answers suggest that you did not read the article or the questions all that carefully. 86
