Hired Attorney

David Bass engaged in misconduct and failed to provide effective assistance of counsel. He lied to us, took our money, and repeatedly assured us we would win, yet at trial he failed to perform even the most basic duties of defense counsel. He: • Failed to object to improper testimony and rulings. • Failed to impeach key witnesses despite clear inconsistencies. • Failed to introduce exculpatory evidence that could have saved his client. • Failed to file critical pretrial and trial motions on his client’s behalf. The U.S. Supreme Court has held that ineffective assistance of counsel violates the Sixth Amendment (Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668 (1984)). Counsel must provide reasonable professional assistance, investigate, and raise essential objections — Mr. Bass did none of these. By withholding evidence, failing to challenge the State’s case, and refusing to act in his client’s best interest, he directly caused the wrongful conviction. Hiring David Bass was a devastating
