I have thought about the questions you raised and though it may seem incredible that if someone had an alibi they would have been shouting it well before they were convicted. Yet when you think about what happened, the fire happened in Sept of 1993 and he was arrested in January of 1994. 4 1/2 months later, it is difficult to remember what you might have been doing on a specific day. It is January now, can you remember what you were doing on September 13 of 2006? I would have a hard time. This was a guy who traveled a lot. The article gives no mention of bail, where he might have had a chance to check his records. Maybe friends or family could have been ask to check (his sister did not even know he was in prison) but suppose the needed calendar was missing, maybe taken by the police, who later claimed they did not have it. So he was in jail without the means to check out his alibi, had a lawyer who did not do his job and then suffered a mental breakdown and was still in the hospital during his trial. How would someone defend themselves in that situation? I would expect he told the detectives he may have been out of the state, why didn't they do their jobs? What was so important about framing him for this fire and death? The guy who did this was said to have a long ponytail. I have heard the same description about a drug dealer around Faye Resnick named JR.
