On Friday, retired State District Judge Perry Pickett concluded at the end of a nine-day evidentiary hear ing that he would recommend that the state Court of Criminal Appeals order a new trial for Brandley, who is currently on death row. Brandley’s first trial for the 1980 rape-slaying of Cheryl Fergeson ended with a jury hung 11-1 for con viction. A second trial in 1981 re sulted in a conviction and death sen tence. “The litany of events graphically described by the witnesses, some of it chilling and shocking, leads me to the conclusion the pervasive shadow of darkness has obscured the light of fundamental decency and human rights,” Pickett said. Speers refused to assess the pros pects for a third Brandley trial, but did outline some of the obstacles that might be faced by the prosecution. “(It would) be a problem even if the exhibits and physical evidence hadn’t disappeared and even if the witnesses hadn’t been messed around with to the extent they don’t even remember . . . and are telling different stories,” Speers said. After Pickett’s announcement Fir- day, Brandley smiled briefly and stood stunned by the defense table, nearly speechless when confronted by reporters. Defense attorneys have argued that Brandley, 37, was singled out for prosecution by Montgomery County officials and that racial prej udice played a role in his conviction. At the end of Friday’s hearing, Pickett strongly criticized the hand ling of the case. One of his attorneys, Don Brown, was in tears while about 200 sup porters — many of them wearing T- shirts and buttons proclaiming “Free Clarence Brandley” — cheered in the courtroom. “I’m very thankful for what hap pened,” Brandley said quietly. “I ap- f ireciate the judge. I’m very thank- ul.l New Agent Orange bill proposed by lawmaker leaves vets skeptical FORT WORTH (AP) — Some veterans are skeptical of a congress man’s proposed bill to force the Vet erans Administration to compensate Vietnam vets who were exposed to Agent Orange. About three dozen veterans told U.S. Rep. John Bryant that they wel come the legislation he plans to in troduce this week. But at a Saturday meeting in Fort Worth, they asked Bryant what would make it any dif ferent from laws already on the books that so far have failed to help them. Agent Orange, a herbicide that contains dioxin, was used to strip jungle foliage in Vietnam. Agent Orange has been blamed for a vari ety of serious health disorders. “For the Veterans Administration to continue to deny compensation to veterans who were disabled by Agent Orange while Fighting for al outra said Bryant, a Dallas Democrat and a member of the House Armed Serv ices Committee. Several veterans complained of being treated poorly when they mentioned Agent Orange and of be ing required to produce much evi dence when seeking medical care. Bryant said the comments were typical of several meetings he has held across the state last week. More than 29,000 Vietnam veter ans have Filed claims with the VA for Agent Orange disabilities, but none has received compensation, Bryant said. their country is a national outrage,” About 253,000 veterans have Filed claims with the Agent Orange Set- dement Fund, established to collect and distribute the $180 million in damages that seven manufacturers were forced to pay victims.
