New Book and Postcard Available

Hans Scherrer, the publisher of Justice Denied Magazine and a respected voice in the wrongful conviction community, has written a new book about Kirstin's case!

Kirstin Blaise Lobato's Unreasonable Conviction by Hans Scherrer is available either from the Justice Denied Bookshop or from Amazon.com.

Here is a summary of the text from Mr. Scherrer's website:

"Yes, Virginia. It is possible for a person to be convicted in the United States of committing a brutal murder and then sexually assaulting the corpse without any physical, forensic, eyewitness or confession evidence the person was within 170 miles of the crime scene. How do we know? Because that is what has happened to 18-year-old Kirstin Blaise Lobato -- twice convicted of murdering a homeless man in 2001 when all the evidence supports that at the time of the crime she was 170 miles north of Las Vegas in Panaca, Nevada." Written by Justice Denied’s publisher Hans Sherrer.

Mr. Scherrer has also created informational postcards about the case that can be printed and shared with local advocates and interested groups. Learn the facts about the case in a comprehensive article written by Hans Scherrer in Justice Denied Magazine: "Possibility of Guilt Replaces Proof Beyond a Reasonable Doubt"

The retrial has concluded. We were collectively shocked and dismayed by the verdict. We remain confident that the appeals process will prove Kirstin's innocence.

Kirstin Lobato is a 23-year old woman who has been wrongfully convicted of murder. If this is your first time to the site, please take a moment to read more about this story of grave injustice.

A team of concerned citizens from around the country is working to raise awareness about the injustice Kirstin has suffered. We call ourselves the Justice4Kirstin Team. Some of us know Kirstin personally; others simply know her story.

An honorary member has written a song for Kirstin that she plays at local clubs in Chicago. In December of last year, two members were invited to table and speak at the Under Our Wings Conference in Las Vegas. There have been radio and newspaper interviews, and there is even an article in an online magazine.

We have received responses of outrage and shock from as near as the downtown strip and as far away as South Africa, Australia, and France. Our online petition has reached over six hundred signatures, and this site has had more than thirteen thousand visitors.

Kirstin has written a note to her supporters. You can write to her via email at Justice4Kirstin@cox.net or by signing the guestbook.

It is your responses, your support, and your vigilance that keep us all going as we await the day Kirstin is released. These words and websites are the means to an important end - Kirstin's freedom. We hope you will join us in pursuit of the day that freedom is hers.
