Fact Investigation that can make a difference in your case

Bill Clutter is smart, energetic and determined. His investigation in a federal capital case exposed police corruption and led to dismissal of murder charges. I can’t think of anybody better at what he does.

The Nicarico Case: Alejandro Hernandez and Rolando Cruz freed in 1995 after 12 years on Death Row

In 1988, Bill Clutter began work on the re-trial of Alex Hernandez after the Illinois Supreme Court vacated his first conviction. Bill worked for Springfield criminal defense attorney Michael Metnick, who volunteered his services pro bono.

Author Scott Turow called the Nicarico case "the most extraordinary criminal case I know."

DuPage County police and prosecutors railroaded two innocent Hispanics. They continued to obstruct justice even after the Illinois State Police obtained the confession of the real killer.

It would take another 10 years to free Hernandez and Cruz, but only after police perjury of a fabricated confession was finally exposed.

It took seventeen years to free Steidl, who was convicted in 1987 of the double homicide of Dyke and Karen Rhoads of Paris, IL. They were savagely stabbed to death in their beds as they lay sleeping. The crime occurred at approximately 4 a.m. on July 5, 1986, when neighbors heard a woman scream. A fire was set destroying evidence of the crime.
