Please review the below notes regarding the edits that were made for Nelson Serrano so you may be informed. Once again, I ask you to enter into dialogue with me regarding your edits so that we may present the facts of this case in its truest context.

On June 26, 2007 Judge Susan Roberts sentenced Nelson Serrano to death by lethal injection even though not a shred of evidence, except for a parking ticket containing his fingerprint (ACCORDING TO TESTIMONY GIVEN AT THE TRIAL BY A FINGERPRINT EXPERT CALLED UPON BY THE PROSECUTOR, THE FINGERPRINT WAS SUSPICIOUS IN NATURE DUE TO THREE CRITICAL REASONS

1. THE RECORDS ROOM OF THE AIRPORT PARKING MANAGEMENT COMPANY HAD BEEN FLOODED DESTROYING EVERYTHING EXCEPT FOR A SMALL BOX OF TICKETS. DETECTIVE RAY CLAIMS HE FOUND BOTH THE ORLANDO AND TAMPA PARKING TICKET STUBS IN THIS BOX AND THREE YEARS AFTER THE MURDERS. 2. THE WERE NO OTHER FINGERPRINTS OR SMUDGES OF ANY KIND ON EITHER TICKETS OTHER THAN A HALF PRINT OF NELSON SERRANO'S RIGHT INDEX FINGER DESPITE THE FACT THAT YOU USUALLY USE YOUR LEFT HAND TO FIRMLY GRAB AND PULL THE TICKET OUT OF THE MACHINE AND THE PARKING LOT CASHIER MUST HOLD THE TICKET FIRMLY TO SWIPE IT. 3. THE HALF PRINT FOUND ON THE ORLANDO TICKET EXACTLY MATCHED THE OTHER HALF OF THE HALF PRINT FOUND ON THE TAMPA TICKET.

, which contradicted his statements to investigators that he was in an Atlanta hotel room the entire day the murders took place, could connect Mr. Serrano with the crime scene or the murders. A footprint matching shoes he was known to have, was also found on a chair (ACCORDING TO TESTIMONY GIVEN AT THE TRIAL BY A FORENSIC EXPERT, THEY SHOE WAS A SIZE SEVEN, NELSON SERRANO WORE A SIZE 8-1/2". FURTHERMORE, THE PROSECUTOR CHANGED HIS THEORY ABOUT THE SHOE AND ITS CONNECTION TO NELSON SERRANO IN MID-TRIAL. THIS CHANGE IN THE PROSECUTOR'S THEORY IS ONE OF THE MANY SUBJECTS UNDER CONSIDERATION FOR THE APPEAL.

below a ceiling tile in his factory office where he was known to have stashed a gun, the caliber of which was used on Diane Patisso. (THIS IS NOT SUPPORTED BY ANY TESTIMONY GIVEN - NOT THAT A GUN WAS STASHED UP THERE OR THAT IT WAS THE SAME CALIBER THAT KILLED DIANE PATISSO. HOWEVER, THIS IS ANOTHER ITEM OF THE PROSECUTOR'S THEORY THAT WAS CHANGED MID-TRIAL)

His lies to investigators were further proven when his own nephew admitted renting a car for him in Florida the day of the murders. (NEPHEW'S TESTIMONY CONFIRMED THAT HE LIED SEVERAL TIMES TO MORE THAN ONE GRAND JURY REGARDING THE CAR AND WHY IT WAS RENTED. HE ADMITTED


 * TO CHANGING HIS STORY TO COMPROMISE NELSON SERRANO'S INNOCENCE AFTER BEING HARASSED TO TEARS BY THE POLICE.
 * HE WAS NOT FACING CHARGES FOR PERJURY AS A RESULT OF HIS TESTIMONY

FURTHERMORE, HE DID NOT DENY RECEIVING COMPENSATION WHEN ASKED ABOUT THE $100,000 REWARD FOR HIS TESTIMONY.

Serrano never bothered to explain to the jury why this was done. He chose not to testify at the trial though his life depended on it, instead relying on legal manuevers that did not work. (SERRANO'S ATTORNEYS, CHENEY MASON AND ROBERT NORGARD, DIDN'T EVEN PUT ON A DEFENSE AND ACCORDING TO MASON DURING AN INTERVIEW AFTER THE SENTENCING, HE STATED THAT HE BELIEVED HE HAD DESTROYED THE PROSECUTION'S CASE AND SINCE THE JURY WAS SUPPOSED TO CONSIDER NELSON SERRANO INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY, HE WAS RELYING THAT REASONABLE DOUBT WOULD LEAD THE JURY TO AN ACQUITTAL.Sisco3 98 (talk) 15:03, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
