i'm maurice dubois. the threatening letters addressed with poison, one addressed to president obama and two sent to the mayor of new york and his gun control group. it never got anywhere near either man but law enforcement takes every threat seriously so the question tonight is who sent them? our homeland security correspondent bob orr has been working his sources and he has the latest tonight on the investigation. bob? >> reporter: maurice, those letters containing angry threats and low-level ricin were post- marked ten days ago in shreveport, louisiana. now the f.b.i. is doing forensic testing looking for clues that might identify who sent them. the latest poison letter to surface was addressed to president obama. it was intercepted by the secret service in a mail sorting facility on a military base six miles from the white house. law enforcement sources say that letter has all the same markings as two others mailed to new york mayor michael bloomberg and to his washington-based gun control group mayor

on march 28, 2011 after more than 20 years in prison, maurice colwell is free. thank you for being here. [ applause ] linda star is the legal and cofounding in the santa clara law, law center clerk received her ph.d.. she wrote and argued post conviction matters in state and federal court and supervisor in the sex crimes unit. she worked as a staff attorney in the 56 appellate court and now works on appeals. from a prosecutor to now an defender. welcome. >> now we have a senior partner, named one of the top trial lawyers in the united states. he's a lion of the trial bar. i have known him for many many years. probably the most suspected trial lawyer. he's practiced for over 50 years. not to make you feel old and has done both civil and trial work and tried 140 cases including many many high profile cases and recognized as 2012 lifetime achiever by the american lawyer. welcome to our panel. i'm going to start with don since we just watched the clip. what made you want to make the movie? >> i was a civil litigate or but working in television at the time in a and e

i may not see it myself the way it's going. >> just moving to the next question for maurice. did you feel discouraged in your fight for innocence when you were incarcerated and did you feel like it was you against the system? >> yes. i felt that, you know from day one. because it's like, even going through trial, it was like i felt that i had no way, story, even if my story was true, there was no way. my character, from where i was from, it was like, i'm already guilty. so for intimidation, i didn't feel intimidated. i always like i said, the hope i had from one end, it deteriorated from me even losing faith from the system and the police arresting me. the lawyers were the ones that helped me get out and the same people that i needed to help me get out were the ones that i was like mad at. so mad, my madness made me fight. so i stayed fighting but i never felt like it was going to be over. i got a niece that is 23 years old right now, even in 2011 when my case got over turned and i called her and i said i will be home. she said you say that all the time. so i never felt like

i may not see it myself the way it's going. >> just moving to the next question for maurice. did you feel discouraged in your fight for innocence when you were incarcerated and did you feel like it was you against the system? >> yes. i felt that, you know from day one. because it's like, even going through trial, it was

but as maurice said about his case, i wouldn't have needed an attorney if the police and prosecutors had done their job to begin with. he's right. i don't want to lose track of that. his attorney was inadequate but he wouldn't have been in the position if everyone else had done their job in the first place. that is pervasive in our system and people working in the trenches is hard to overcome that complacency and their client issen entitled to that. that doesn't provide the information that they need to challenge the prosecution. where we know many of our experts on arson and the fire wasn't arson. when you have evidence that isn't disclosed you have experts that are challenged because there are no resources and you have a system that has burden the public with too many cases and it's impossible for them not to be complacent. we have to remember to be vigilant and challenge a system that doesn't give a person representation are entitled to. >> i wanted to ask you what is it about the culture of prosecution or prosecutors that allows wrongful convictions. i know there have been storie

now jennifer mckee was the person responsible for stabbing maurice gonzalez more than five times in the neck and the chest. she has been charged with first-degree murder. the other two families have also been charged in this incident. >> well they got what they set out for. they're not going to be homeless anymore. >>> guess what, i have a couple of car videos. going around a rally track. it's an auto cross. a little bit of trouble there. slides around the right hander. gets a little hung up but makes it. he does another pass -- >> just fine. >> but his luck runs out. and around one, two, and lands back on his wheels. you can tell the driver is kind of ticked off. >> he should have learned his lesson because he almost messed up the first time. >> and the second time. it's the same curb. maybe go in a different way or attempt it differently. >> what i don't like about this guy, he's no spring chicken. it's like grand pa out there. >> >> he's man. >> down to australia where they love their burn out. lots of noise, a ton of smoke but that's not enough. basically he ignites his whole car. >

sources tell me he's a joker, a smoker and a midnight toker. ( applause ) and often uses the alias maurice. now, the tax exempt group singled out by the i.r.s. are all social welfare organizations known as 501(c)4s. warning: the following footage con tapes graphic depictions of the u.s. tax code. >> the c-4 designation grew in value in 2010 right after the supreme court said corporations could spend unlimited cash on elections, c-4 applications more than doubled. c4s are specifically forbidden to make politics their primary activity but one advantage, they don't have to reveal their donors >> stephen: a c-4 is like a super pac that doesn't have to reveal its donors which means they could be anyone from one of the koch brothers all the way to the other koch brother. and it is all perfectly legal as long as politics isn't the group's primary activity meaning your 501(c)4 can spend 49% of its efforts producing ads calling barack obama a socialist as long as it spends the other 51% doing something good for the community like educating our children that barack obama is a socialist.

the problem is, the judge who released maurice never dealt with that. >> it's unfair to for so many reasons. it's unfair because he has been so wronged and state has conceded they can't prove him guilty. >> system as it stands does have defenders. among them his original prosecutor who still believes that he committed the crime even though another man has confessed. >> i think he ought to count himself lucky he got a break he did. i really don't think the taxpayers need to give him a bunch on money on top of it. >> the d.a. will never admit that they did a wrong when they know they were wrong. >> two wears out of prison and this is his postscript. a man on welfare and in limbo and still relishing every simple pleasure. a guy spends a lot of time on couch watching crime dramas. in sacramento, wayne freedman, "abc 7 news." >>> solar powered airplane should finish the first leg of the cross-country journey in less than an hour. it took off in mountain view to phoenix. first plane that can fly completely without fuel. solar cells on the wings power the plane day or night. the plane will eventua

next we have maurice call well. he was convicted in the housing project here in san francisco. there was no physical evidence linking him to the crime yet he was still convicted based on the false testimony of a single neighbor. he was sentence to life behind bars. in prison mr. colwell contacted the center for help and located two witnesses who saw
