I’m not going to say that Jusef Bey IV would have walked if the Chauncey Bailey project hadn’t come together to investigate the murder. But it’s certainly possible. There’s no question that the Okland cops were ignoring key evidence. And his conviction on first degree murder charges for planning the assassination is a tribute to what can happen when journalists who normally compete with each other get together for this sort of project. We were proud to be involved in the Chauncey Bailey Project, and I think thoue outcome speaks for itself.
