Episode 49. Angela Garcia was a 22 year old mother of two when her house caught fire claiming the lives of her two toddler daughters. Angela soon found herself standing in a courtroom accused of arson, murder, and insurance fraud. What evidence did investigators have to prove Angela had done such a horrible deed? They had some photos and some arson investigation myths that had been debunked already by the time she was tried. Two juries couldn't be convinced of her guilt and resulted in back-to-back mistrials after the juries reported they were hopelessly deadlocked. A third jury would send her to prison for a crime she didn't commit. This is the story of Angela Garcia and how a dark plea continues to cast a shadow over her life. What did Angela Garcia trade for her freedom? This is Part 1 of Angela's story on Crime to Burn.  To get involved in assisting formerly incarcerated individuals like Angela, please consider these organizations: https://innocenceproject.org/donate-monthly/#:~:text=There%20are%20many%20ways%20to,Project%20in%20your%20estate%20plans. https://exoneratednation.org/   https://www.lifeafterjustice.org/   https://organizationofexonerees.com/   This podcast is a true crime podcast about arson and criminal fires.

Plea of Guilty of Murder for Insurance Cannot Be Withdrawn In State Of Ohio v. Darin Brusiter, No. 112410, 2023-Ohio-3794, Court of Appeals of Ohio, Eighth District, Cuyahoga (October 19, 2023) Darin Brusiter ("Brusiter") appealed for the third time from the trial court's denial of his post-sentence motion to withdraw his guilty plea. FACTS In April 2011, Brusiter was charged with two counts of aggravated murder, with murder-for-hire and firearm specifications, kidnapping, insurance fraud, and tampering with evidence in relation to the killing of Asia Harris ("Harris"). Harris's husband Samuel Wilson was also charged in the same indictment. Brusiter filed a motion to suppress the statements he made to the police as being in violation of Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436, 86 S.Ct. 1602, 16 L.Ed.2d 694 (1966). On May 2, 2012, the court denied Brusiter's motion and that same day he pled guilty to one count each of aggravated murder, kidnapping, insurance fraud, and tampering with evidence. The court sentenced Brusiter to an agreed term of "33 years to life" in prison. Brusiter filed a direct appeal of the trial court's denial of his motion to suppress and the Court of Appeals earlier affirmed Brusiter's convictions, finding that he waived his right to appeal pretrial rulings when he pled guilty.  In finding that Brusiter waived his right to challenge the denial of his motion to suppress, the Court of Appeals also concluded that "the record on appeal affirmatively demonstrates that [Brusiter] entered a voluntary, knowing and intelligent guilty plea as required by Crim.R. 11." Brusiter filed a second motion to withdraw guilty plea. In this motion, Brusiter argued that there are two, apparently specious, reasons he should be allowed to withdraw his guilty plea. The trial court summarily denied both motions to withdraw guilty plea ANALYSIS Appellate courts review a trial court's ruling on a motion to withdraw a guilty plea for an abuse of discretion. The presumption of prejudice recognized in precedent applies regardless of whether a defendant has signed an appeal waiver. Brusiter's 2020 motion to withdraw his guilty plea, which alleged ineffective assistance of counsel and the improper denial of his motion to suppress, is barred by the doctrine of res judicata. Brusiter filed a direct appeal in which he challenged the trial court's denial of his motion to suppress. The Court of Appeals three times affirmed Brusiter's convictions, finding that he waived his right to challenge the denial of his motion to suppress by pleading guilty. The Court of Appeals also found that Brusiter's guilty plea was voluntary, knowing, and intelligent. Therefore, the trial court did not abuse its discretion by denying Brusiter's motion to withdraw his guilty plea without holding a hearing. The motion was filed almost nine years after he pled guilty to aggravated murder and other offenses associated with the death of Harris. ZALMA OPINION Although life insurance fraud by murder is a seriously and violent crime Mr. Brusiter decided it was important to plead guilty with a guaranteed sentence of only 33 years rather than a death sentence, he abused the kindness of the courts of Ohio by filing multiple motions and appeals to withdraw his plea. Since he's in jail for at least 20 more years it made no sense to punish him further or seek monetary sanctions he could not pay, but any further appeals or motions should be summarily dismissed without an opinion.

Tommy Raskin, a twenty-five-year-old law student, took his own life on New Year’s Eve, after a long battle against depression. His family laid him to rest on January 5th, and, the next day, his father went to the United States Capitol, where he serves in Congress. Representative Jamie Raskin, who represents Maryland’s Eighth District, had an enormous task ahead of him: he was mounting the defense of the Electoral College vote. When a violent mob incited by Donald Trump breached the building, Raskin’s life was in danger, along with the lives of his daughter and son-in-law, who had joined him that day for support. Just weeks later, when the House impeached Donald Trump for his role in inciting that insurrection, Raskin was the lead manager prosecuting the case. Raskin told David Remnick about the devastation of a suicide in the family, his condolence calls from President Biden and Vice-President Harris, and how he believed the entire Senate would unite to convict Donald Trump.

On October 6, 2020, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments for Rutledge v. Pharmaceutical Care Management Association. The issue in this case is whether states have the right to regulate pharmacy benefit managers, or PBM’s. Leslie Rutledge, Arkansas’s Attorney General, has petitioned the court to overturn the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth District’s prior decision to maintain Arkansas’ statute regulating PBMs’ drug reimbursement rates. Rutledge argues the statute is preempted by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. Max Schulman joins us to discuss this case’s oral arguments. Schulman is an associate in the Washington, D.C. office of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher.

Rep. Don Beyer (D-Va.) is a freshman member of Congress who's running in his first reelection campaign. Since taking over for long-time congressman Jim Moran, Beyer has been focused on a number of issues of importance to voters in the Eighth District of Virginia, which includes Arlington. We asked Beyer about some of those issues, like the rehabilitation of the Memorial Bridge and aircraft noise from Reagan National Airport, as well as this year's election and, of course, the presidential candidacy of Donald Trump.

At a time when Donald Trump is at the top of the Republican Party's ticket, GOP congressional hopeful Charles Hernick is, well, not anything like Donald Trump. He's an economic conservative who doesn't have much to say about social issues. He thinks he can do a better job in office than Rep. Don Beyer (D), but doesn't think he should be jailed. In fact, Hernick acknowledges that Beyer is basically free of skeletons in his closet, which makes running against him even more of an uphill battle than he would otherwise face in the deep blue Eighth District of Virginia. We talked with Hernick about the issues, about Trump and about Hernick's own one-time intra-party foe, the ever-entertaining Mike Webb.
