Episode Thirteen | Ballots vs. Borders: The George Alan Kelly Trial
In this conversation, the hosts discuss the case of an Arizona rancher who was arrested and charged with homicide for killing a suspected illegal alien on his property. They highlight the political nature of the case and the concerns about fairness and justice. The hosts introduce Dr. Ron Martinelli, a forensic expert and consultant who has been involved in the case. Dr. Martinelli explains his involvement and the work of his team at Martinelli and Associates. He provides a detailed account of the incident and the subsequent investigation, highlighting the miscommunication and bias that affected the case. The conversation ends with the arrest of the rancher and his wife, who were both cooperative throughout the process. An elderly couple, George Allen Kelly and Wanda Kelly, were arrested and charged with first-degree murder after a body was found on their property in Santa Cruz County, Arizona. The couple cooperated with law enforcement throughout the investigation, but were arrested without any evidence linking them to the crime. The prosecution relied on circumstantial evidence and ignored alternative theories, such as the possibility of a robbery by a rogue bandito group. The case highlights issues of prosecutorial bias and lack of proper investigation. The couple's defense team, led by Dr. Ron Martinelli, is seeking justice and exoneration for the Kellys.
