WELCOME

Criminal Informant

A deal remained undisclosed & withheld from the defense team, resulted in

the release of the CI, with a lengthy record.

This is a Brady Violation.

The CI interviews and testimony differs.

Criminal Informant Cell Records 

The CI & Cullen were in different cell blocks at the time of the "interaction". The supposed interaction took place on 9/7 or 9/8 (last Monday or Tuesday).

Cullen was in the DM unit from 9/3 @1:31am- 9/4 @10:33 am, only 33 hours.

Rolando was in the DM Unit from 8/18 - 10/1.

Cullen spent his first hours in the infirmary being monitored carefully for head trauma,  recovering from injuries he reported happened during his arrest and transport.

Brady Violations  

The following evidence was withheld by the prosecution:

Criminal Informant Deal 

Cell Phone Records 

Criminal Informant Cell Record 

CAD Recordings

Audit Log

Time Discrepancy on Call for Service

Origin of Call for Service

Appeals Process 

The 3rd District has ruled in our favor several times only to return the power back to Henry County.

The most recent example, Judge Rosebrook ruled that we had found new evidence but considered the cell records inconsequential, despite Cullen & Rolando not being in the same cell block during the supposed interaction.

Is this an over step?

It is under current appeal.  We are waiting for the decision from a hearing held on September 9th, 2025.

Public Records Not Provided 

Henry County has been less than cooperative, professional, and forthcoming when it comes to public records. We have had to esclate to filing a writ of mandamus, twice, to force them to comply with public records requests. The Henry County Sheriff required us to pay $585 for these records, the check was personally delivered on 5/22/25 and cleared on 5/28/25. The initial records request was in early 2024.

Misuse of Power ?

Cullen was immediately arrested at gun point without questioning. Cullen also reported being hit several times in the head by Sheriff Bodenbender during the arrest and additional injuries experienced later during his transport to the Henry County Hospital. When Zach Lyne alerts the Sheriff to the accusation, Sheriff  Bodenbender is silent and then the recorded call conveniently "disconnects". On the subsequent call, Sheriff Bodenbender laughs about it.
