The Case
Lisker Case Analysis
A detailed, fully footnoted examination of the evidence — the police theory, the blood, the informant, and the man the case was never built against.
“I told the truth — and it didn’t matter.”
I researched and wrote the entirety of this analysis myself — the case against me, taken apart piece by piece. Each part stands on its own and is backed by the trial record, the physical evidence, and hundreds of footnotes. Read them in order, or jump to the part you want.
