6. But Strickland remains behind bars today. Why? Mostly because of one man: Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt. Schmitt is running for U.S. Senate and has "churned out litigation designed to win favor with Donald Trump’s angry, aggrieved GOP base." https://t.co/712a5tdWsY — PolitiTweet.org

5. All of this has convinced the county prosecutor, Jean Peters Baker, that Strickland is "is factually innocent." A new Missouri law passed in May gives Baker the right to make a motion for Strickland's release. And that's exactly what Baker did. https://t.co/712a5tdWsY — PolitiTweet.org

7. Schmitt is vehemently opposing Strickland's release and using the case to convey that he is "tough on crime and is putting up a fight to keep a convicted criminal behind bars." He's repeatedly asked for lengthy delays of Baker's motion. https://t.co/712a5tdWsY — PolitiTweet.org
