The State of Pennsylvania Seeks to Bar His Lawyer
The Frame-Up of Corey Walker

http://www.internationalist.org/frameupcoreywalker1602.html

Corey Walker was arrested in July 1996 on a bogus murder charge from
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. He has been behind bars ever since. Evidence
of his innocence was withheld. He is the victim of prosecutorial
misconduct and incompetent legal representation. Lorenzo Johnson, who
was arrested in the same case, also remains in prison even though a
federal appeals court recognized the insufficiency of the evidence
against him, but was overruled by the U.S. Supreme Court. Now the state
is trying to deny Walker the attorney of his choice, Rachel Wolkenstein,
who has defended Mumia Abu-Jamal. Pennsylvania authorities will stop at
nothing to cover up lying and manufacture of evidence, coercion of
witnesses and suppression of evidence of innocence by police and
prosecutors. This requires silencing Corey Walker and short-circuiting
his legal appeal. In seeking to disqualify Wolkenstein from representing
him, the state attorney general's office cites her political views that
the judicial system is an organ of racist oppression that must be
overthrown by socialist revolution. This witch-hunting attack and the
continued incarceration of Walker and Johnson go to the heart of Jim
Crow “justice system.” Free Corey Walker and Lorenzo Johnson!
