After leaving Cavenders I stopped at the carwash on Rayford/Sawdust Road, washing my truck before meeting Gail at the community college, who owed money for work I had done for her.

William Irvan’s letter to You William Irvan asks you to read his letter (pdf) before you proceed with his case. The only evidence linking Irvan to the then cold capital case of 1987 is the perjured testimony by a federal prisoner with four (4) life sentences, who lied in order to get her daughter’s incarcerated father moved closer to her family. Even family members of the false informant testified that she was not credible. There is no physical evidence that proves Irvan’s guilt and the suspected perpetrator’s DNA was not tested. It is not clear why the jury convicted Irvan, and why they sent himRead More →
