The Manatee County Sheriff's Department and Eugene Matthews have feuded for decades. Not a single one of seven prior arrests have resulted in a conviction.
In short, Matthews housed a friend's dog. The friend had died the week before. The family that came to pick up the dog anticipated trouble retrieving the dog. In spite of this, they hatched a plan anyway. The plan went haywire. Mr. Matthews shot and killed his friend's wife. Now Matthews resides without bond in the county jail with his trial set for this July.
The Sheriff's Department, the local Judiciary, local State Attorney's office and local newspaper all have it out for Eugene Matthews. His future freedom rests on the quality of his representation and a jury.
How do you think this plays out?
