I am reaching out on the behalf of Marco McIlwain, an inmate temporarily housed in the state of Georgia. At eighteen years old, Marco was wrongly convicted for being involved in a car chase shooting that in 2007. During the trial, Marco's attorney, Stacey Levy was working against him with Gwinnett County Prosecutors. She did not present any of his evidence to the court which were his phone records to ping his exact location, fighting his gunpowder residue test which was negative, and went forth to tell the jury she agrees they should convict him to voluntary manslaughter in her closing arguments. Marco's trial lawyer was also upset with him because he would not lie and testify against co-defendants. "SHE SOLD HIM OUT!!!!!!" They wrongly convicted Marco of because of hearsay. The detectives who arrested him admitted in trial they didn't read him his Miranda Rights.

  One of the witnesses name Tye Richard Hilmo is convicted of raping and sodomizing his own daughters, and in 2007 he was arrested for animal cruelty feeding kittens to his pitbulls alive. District Attorney Danny Porter and Nigel Lush dropped his charges to lie on Marco at trial.

  Marco's appeal attorney Robert Greenwald who was appointed by Gwinnett County also did the worst job ever. Even the Georgia Supreme Court said that he did not do his job. MCILWAIN V. STATE, GA (2010). He did not state any legal authority or argue any of the merits he so called came up with in his documents.

 In 2016, Marco was had to defend his self in a knife fight. Unfortunately, one of the guys who attacked him died and Marco end up catching more charges. It was a coincidence that this happened around the time he was doing his habeas corpus and the case was going back to the Georgia Supreme Court to get reviewed on appeal. Georgia Supreme Court denied the case when they found out Marco was charged with another murder in prison and was transferred to the high max facility for the worst inmates in Georgia.

  Marco spoke with Natalie Owens (a victim and the main lying witness in the case) in early 2020 through a mutual friend. That's  when the two realized they both had different discovery packets. In Marco's discovery, it states his gun powder test and labs came back negative, but in Natalie's it says positive on all tests and that there was even residue on Marco's hands and clothes. In one of the statements in the discovery packet she told the detectives that the people who did it had their face covered, but at trial Natalie said she was 100 percent sure it was Marco. Natalie also said in the conversation with Marco that the detectives threatened her with a charge for setting up the shooting if she didn't testify and say it was Marco who had done the crime. After they conversed, Natalie agreed to help Marco.

  Marco worked continuously on his case to prove his innocence and did his own legal work in 2021 because of his trust with lawyers. He submitted an extraordinary motion that got him a court date. Judge Atkins was so called pleased of the brief and gave him sixty days to turn his proof into the DA's office. Marco proof was a recording of the conversation him and Natalie had. Marco's mother put that recording in the hands of the DA who was on the case. Marco never returned to court, but he received a letter from Judge Atkins saying they denied his motion. Not only that, they set a court date 28 days after the denial to tell him why they denied the motion, and or he could argue why they denied it. The judges cancelled it on the day of the court date. Marco never seen the judge. That was the trick for him to run out of time so he couldn't appeal the motion's denial to The Georgia Supreme Court because it's a 30 day time frame and that court date was set on a Friday. Marco found that information out because he dragged the working officer to the front of the SMU facility to ask why he not at court. Even that officer felt where he was coming from and wasn't mad about the situation after he found out Marco's situation.

Joseph Andrew "Joey" Smith, which is Marco's codefendant that lied on him to get a deal with the State has been communicating through a mutual friend that he and Marco share. Joey admits he took a deal to "bury" Marco fifteen plus years ago. Joey said that the detective showed him paperwork that Marco said he did everything and was crying in interrogation. This was the trick Joey fell for. He also states that the prosecutors, detectives, and lawyers coerced him into falsely accusing him just to get Marco put in prison. Joey will have an affidavit done. Now that Marco has enough proof to be freed, he applied to the Conviction Integrity Unit in Gwinnett County, which is a criminal reform program for all wrongly convicted. Marco hopes to hear a response soon. Marco can prove prosecution misconduct.

THIS IS THE WORKS OF DANNY PORTER PROSECUTION TEAM!!!!!!

 Thank you so much for your time and signatures and support reversing this COURTROOM LYNCHING.

   The question in your head is why would they do this to him? When Marco moved to Gwinnett County it was a Klu Klux Klan hub. He went to Dacula High School and changed their kids bigotry mentality and made them understand the meaning of what they was representing and switched the culture.
