I thought that there was a thread for his appeal here at WS, but I cannot find. If someone has a better thread to move this to, let me know.
GA Supreme Court hears second Hemy Neuman appeal 3 hours ago
Jurors in the 2012 trial found Neuman guilty but mentally ill. He was sentenced to life in prison with no chance of parole for the murder charge plus five years for a firearm charge. In the second trial, Neuman’s attorneys argued as part of their appeal, “witnesses were prohibited from fully testifying as to matters which would have supported his sole defense of insanity."
Michael Tarleton, representing Neuman, said Wednesday that the DeKalb DA’s office should have been disqualified from prosecuting a second time due to their exposure to that privileged information.
“What we specifically disputed was whether or not they could erase that evidence from their own minds,” Tarleton said. “We have no way of challenging that ourselves and it shouldn’t be our burden to do so.”
