Prisoner at center of ‘KopBusters’ campaign may soon be freed

The woman at the epicenter of a Texas filmmaker's crusade against allegedly corrupt police may soon be freed thanks to a federal judge's decision to vacate her sentence.

Yolanda Madden, who was jailed in 2005 after being convicted of possession of and intent to distribute narcotics, was the reason that Barry Cooper came to Odessa, Texas last December. After being hired to embarrass the local police by Yolanda's father Raymond, Cooper set up a fake marijuana grow house and baited officers to stage an illegal raid. When they did, police were confronted by an empty house and lots of cameras, with a hand-written poster explaining they had become part of a new reality show called "KopBusters".

For Yolanda, the stunt was just the beginning of efforts to secure her freedom. Cooper and Madden's father insist Odessa officers planted the narcotics she was jailed for.

At a Thursday evidentiary hearing, U.S. District Court Judge Robert Junell granted a motion to "vacate, set aside, or correct" Yolanda's sentence, effectively guaranteeing a new trial and possibly her freedom, according to CBS 7 in Odessa.

Its a shame that our government feels they have to put people through this kind of persecution and then really the burden of proof gets transfered to the defense to have to prove they are dealing with dirty cops. Another government system run amuck.

I agree totally. Our system is set up for making money, not finding justice. It's a racket, they call it business. I call it corrupt "ENTERPRISES".

Messed up too that the people they are haulin in sometimes are sick as dogs. seriously dont they feel bad about doin that crap?

[jamessr]

IMHO I don't believe they know what that is. money seems to be the object, not one's conscience. Businesses run on lots of money from customers, we are just their customers.

That's a sickness with no cure, but, is just a contagious disease that spreads daily.
