October 29th in Magnolia, Mississippi

Down in Magnolia, Mississippi trying to track down Carolyn Krieger, the sole witness to the murder for which Lenny is serving his life sentence.  The State had not been able to ‘produce’ her so people assumed she has passed away.  We know it’s not because they’re not trying to find witnesses because they produced two other women (the sisters who were living claim to have been living in the house with Lenny when the murder took place… Yet the story is so convoluted that one of the two sisters (admittedly a woman with a 30 year heroin habit) actually said only 10 days ago that she remembered that it was Mike Myers, not Lenny who committed the murder.

With luck and perseverance we found her and now have good reason to believe she’s living with her son in this small town. Carolyn is Lenny’s whole case and now that we know she’s alive, it’s only a matter of having her corroborate or contradict her original testimony.  Either way, the case now turns.

It’s an incredibly exciting day.  Crosby, Lenny’s lawyer is ecstatic, Will, Lenny’s benefactor, friend and supporter is anxious.  Lenny? I don’t know.  Might see him tomorrow.

Why am I writing and not tracking down Carolyn…?  Ran out of battery power on my camera and found a coffee shop that has wireless!  I’m loving it.
