Spolin & Dukes attorneys are ecstatic to announce the successful release of a client who was wrongfully convicted of murder 18 years ago. The client had been in custody since 2006, and the Spolin & Dukes attorneys, particularly Caitlin Dukes and Erica Esquivel, have been representing him in various post-conviction courts for the last four years.
On June 11th he was finally released, and he sent a short video to his Spolin & Dukes attorneys showing him walking his dog near the Santa Monica boardwalk.
The firm is preparing a more detailed account of the client’s saga and legal battles, which will be published on the firm’s website soon. In the meantime, you can read this media article about the client’s case that was published shortly before he won his case and was released.
