Well, what does 2009 have in store
for us? I pray something good... I’m not big on celebrating this time of
the year too much, as it was around this time that my whole life was
yanked away from me... But I feel that 2009 CAN hold great opportunities
and changes, and I hope you all will join us as we press forward trying
to seek my freedom... Welcome to 2009 everyone, I hope it brings you
many good memories and success...- TONY MEDINA 01/13/2009

The tour: „Not in our names!“
is organized by: 
05/26/2009 On May 26,
2009 State Judge Marc Carter signed the D.A.`s "Proposed Findings of
Fact and Conclusions of Law" and recommended to the CCA that I be denied
habeas relief... This is a very disappointing incident, since everyone
involved in trying to help me save my life had hoped this Judge would
give us a competent review. Instead he has proven to be just like every
other Harris Country Judge, totally biased and prejudiced against any
person coming from death row asking for relief. Instead of actually
reading my appeal and responding to the issues himself, he fell in
behind the D.A.`s position, ignoring the fact that this D.A.`s office
has been beset with scandal for years...
The fight is still far from
over, so please do not give up hope in me yet. My appeal will now go to
the Court of Criminal Appeal in Austin, Texas.
There IS NO certain
time limit for them to reply, so we do not know when we will once again
hear something although the CCA does reduce its review of cases during
the summer months. Though the CCA has not been known to give death row
inmates much help in the last 10 years, we are hopeful that they will
see the merits in our appeal, and will send us back to the state court
for a hearing so we can present the many new pieces of evidence that
prove I am innocent and that the authorities knew this.
We still need
your help, and I hope that you will continue to support us in any way
you can.
IN HEART AND STRUGGLE... TONY MEDINA June 2009 06/13/2009 We made it,
on the 20th of May the TV from Finland did their documentation of Tony
at the Polunsky Unit. It will be already on TV at Finland by the 13th
of June 2009. If you would like to see it, please use the link to watch
the show. There were also two interviews published on radio stations at
Finland as well as followed by an article on the newspapers on the 13th
of June which will also lead to the documentary. The interest seems to
grow because we got more questions for following interviews. I will let
you know how everything moves forward. Article |

Martina Jaser has
announced the name of Tony Medina for a monument of peace at Italy
called ) “Tavolo di Pace” (Table of Peace)
(This monument will be
illuminated for two consecutive nights each time a government around the
world decides to abolish the death penalty or when a death sentence is
commuted to life imprisonment.” Needless to say this goes also – and
doubly so – for when an innocent person who was given a death sentence
is exonerated and released). 07/09/2009:

Hello,
„AS
you all know, on May 26 the state court judge turned down my Proposed
Facts and Findings, and signed off on the State’s. In doing so he
recommended to the CCA that they deny me Habeas Relief at the state
level. Today (September 16, 2009) the CCA issued a ruling turning down
my appeal. Of course, they did not give any solid reasons, instead they
did what they have become famous for under Killer-Keller and her
Pro-Prosecution attitude, they simply rubber-stamped the findings of the
state trial court… Never mind that there were many very obvious
mistakes, that doesn’t concern the CCA… so now I move forward to my
federal appeals. Morris Moon was able to get Jim Marcus and Robert
McGlasson, both VERY good lawyers, to take over my federal Appeals, and
we will start working on that very soon.
I wanted to thank ALL of the
people who have supported me, and I want to ask all of you again to
please keep supporting us in our campaign efforts. My time is getting
limited, so I need as much help as all of you can give us…
THANK YOU…
IN
HEART AND STRUGGLE --- TONY. M

NEW
YEARS GREETINGS FOR ALL - FROM TONY MEDINA...
I stopped
celebrating New Year’s ever years ago. It’s hard for me to celebrate a
night that pretty much took my life away... But I’m not trying to be a
wet blanket here!!! New Year’s is supposed to be about welcoming in a
new time, and hoping for a better year... I can get with that... 2009
was a okay year, we were able to make some decent strides in my fight,
and I am praying that 2010 will see us having further success... I want
to thank all of you that helped us spread the word and push my fight
forward in 2009, and I hope you will stay with us in oh-ten... Everyone
getting ready to party... have a drink for me, but above all, be safe
out there... TONY MEDINA 01/28/2010:

A German
lector/journalist wants to write a press release for Tony Medina’s
fight. It will be used for further work with the Media. April 23,
2010
Received good news today. On April 5th, my lawyers
filed a great motion in the federal courts, asking for more time to
prepare the final amendments on my appeal. My state habeas appeal was
MUCH larger then normal appeals in Texas, since I had the benefit of a
really good lawyer. So my Federal appeal lawyers are having to work thru
a lot of material, built up over 10 years. On April 20th the judge
GRANTED our motion! This now gives us until September 16, 2010 to file.
This time means we will have more time to file the best appeal possible,
giving me the greatest chance in the courts.....
