Tim Hancock, complicity to murder

tim_hancock_180

The pages you are about to view are not about invoking sympathy for convicted inmates. What this is about, is to show the truth and show what has happened in the State of Ohio's Prison System, and it continues to happen not only in Ohio but ALL over the US.

People are sent to prison for various crimes, no one is denying that crime should be punished. Sometimes severely!

However, sentences are handed out by Judges not by Correctional Officers. Their job is to keep a prison secure and safe for inmates and staff alike. This did not happen in the Timothy Hancock and Jason Wagner cases. Correctional Institutions are supposed to be where prisoners are held safely and securely. Prison guards cannot be allowed to be judge, jury and executioner. Yet they where allowed to do so in this case. Why? Why do these guards and the State of Ohio go unpunished?

Read for yourself and write letters of protest to Attorney General Petro and Governor Bob Taft.

TIM HANCOCK GETS LWOP AFTER OHIO'S

FIRST EVER MITIGATION ONLY JURY TRIAL

 

Tim Hancock became the first person in Ohio to face a jury seated only to decide whether to impose death or a life sentence. Initially, Tim had been convicted and sentenced to death; but the Ohio Supreme Court reversed his death sentence and ordered a new mitigation-phase trial. The second jury voted for life without parole.

Dear Friends and Supporters

As you know I won a mitigation trial and was given life without parole! Actually 888 years and 88 days to be precise.

I am still not abandoing my appeals for a complete new trial!! Not until justice is served for all and the corruption of the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation is exposed.

Tim Sentenced to LWOP

Tuesday, 27 February 2007

 

Tim Hancock has been sentenced to Life without the possibilty of ever being freed.

This sentence is not any better than the Death Sentence and so Tim will live a "living" death and not get the help he needs for his mental health problems.

I will post more news when I know it. I know Tim's family have been there with him which I am sure helped him some.

Expert: Pervert, killer were inapt cellmates

Friday, 23 February 2007

 

LEBANON - Prison officials helped set the stage for murder by housing Timothy Hancock, a convicted killer who hated sex offenders, in a cell with child rapist Jason Wagner, an expert witness told a Warren County jury Thursday.

In the first Ohio case of its kind, the jury will consider whether to reinstate a previous jury's recommendation of a death sentence for Hancock. The 37-year-old Allen County man was granted a new "penalty phase," but not a new trial, after a series of appeals of his 2001 conviction and death sentence in Wagner's strangulation.

LEBANON - In a case believed to be the first of its kind in Ohio, a Warren County jury will consider whether a convicted killer should get the death penalty even though a different jury heard his case more than five years ago.

A jury began hearing evidence Wednesday in the strange case of Timothy Hancock, which has been bouncing among various courts since a jury convicted him of strangling his prison cellmate in late 2001.
