Luis Miguel Salinas,

is currently serving a life sentence in Pleasant Valley State Prison in Coalinga, CA. Luis was charged with and convicted of attempted murder. However the facts in this case speak for his innocence.

  1. Jason Abner, a police officer, testified in the first trial, confirming that he never witnessed an infield show-up where the victim could identify the shooter. This testimony caused a hung jury in Luis’s first trial. . Tragically, due to Luigi's inadequate legal representation, Abner didn't testify in the crucial second trial in witch he was convicted.

  2. We have two significant alibi witnesses. Beatriz, who was with Luigi in his car, revealed they were on a casual date, listening to music and getting to know each other the night of the shooting. Beatriz, initially hesitant due to fear of deportation, eventually summoned the courage to state that Luigi didn't shoot anyone. Rosie, an eyewitness from her balcony, had a bird's-eye view of the events that night. She asserts that she never saw the ambulance doors open, preventing the victim from identifying the shooter. Sadly, ineffective legal representation resulted in lost contact with Rosie, and locating her is vital to prove Luigi's innocence.

  3. The true shooter, Hector, has confessed. He attests that Luigi had no involvement or knowledge of the crime, strengthening Luigi's case.

  4. The victim, William, initially accused Luis while under the influence of drugs and injured. Believing he was on the brink of death, William expressed anger when a police officer insinuated his demise. Desperate to blame someone, he falsely implicated Luigi. However, William's survival and newfound conscience prompted him to come forward and reveal the truth: Luigi is not his shooter. William supports helping Luigi establish his innocence.

  5. There is no DNA evidence linking Luis to the crime scene, no gunpowder residue, no motifs, no fingerprints, and no recovered weapon. These compelling facts further undermine any belief in Luigi's involvement in the shooting.
