After a conviction in Florida, one of the first things done is to research and create a Post Sentence Investigative (PSI) report to use at the parole board. This is a copy of Richard William’s PSI.
Post Sentence Ingestigaton Report
As you can see by clicking on the above link, Richard’s PSI was done years later and the information provided by both the trial judge on his case and the state attorney is erroneous. Yet, in the number of years, even decades, that Richard has spent in prison and going to the parole board every five years since — no one has corrected it and his parole decisions are based on it even today.
Sadly, this fraudulent ~ incorrect information was also used in the penalty phase of Richard’s 1980 case in the testimony given by Doyle Kemp, the records custodian from the Florida State Prison. At the time the State Attorney, Tom Elwell, who had (and still has to this day) the correct information in his files did nothing to correct the record.
There is no statute of limitations on perjury or on fraud on the court in a capital case in Florida. Yet to this very day the State Attorney’s Office in Gainesville does nothing to seek the truth or justice. In fact, the state attorney William “Bill” Cervone won’t even return phone calls and totally ignores the fact that Bradford County clerk of court recently lied to him about the status of Richard Williams case files.
