Mr. Locke, Thank you for keeping this ongoing story of Mississippi’s discredited and notorious medical examiner, Dr. Steven Haynes, in the harsh spotlight. How many innocent lives did he destroy?
And then there’s the Jeff Havard manifest injustice.
Petition · Mississippi AG Jim Hood: Grant JEFF HAVARD an Evidentiary Hearing to Prove he was Wrongfully Convicted! · Change . org 11/2014

“Jeff’s conviction was based on the testimony of an un-certified pathologist and the sexual molestation speculation of emergency room staff that testified the infant’s dilated anus indicated sexual abuse. Jeff was denied independent experts to counter their claims. Since Jeff’s conviction all testimony used to convict has been disputed and discredited.
Dr. Steven Hayne conducted the autopsy, concluding the death was a homicide, consistent with shaken baby syndrome. Dr. Hayne also testified that an anal contusion was “consistent with penetration of the rectum with an object.” He did not state Chloe was sexually assaulted, but failed to rightfully exclude it. The court accepted the findings of Dr. Hayne, neglecting to take into account that he was not a certified pathologist. Since the time of Jeff’s trial, Dr. Hayne has been discredited for submitting faulty work on multiple cases and is now banned from performing autopsies in the State of Mississippi. Dr. Hayne later re-examined the case and has now stated in a signed declaration that evidence was not sufficient to conclude that a sexual assault occurred.”
