Glynn Simmons was a fighter his whole life. When he asked me to represent him, he was fighting for his freedom and to clear his name. We won his freedom and exoneration after 48 years of wrongful incarceration. We went on to have a court find that he was actually innocent. Once he was free, he took on one more fight, against cancer, and fought it to the end. Rest in peace, Glynn.
