Mason’s Attorney Questioned on Surveillance Video

Herbert Panton

News Five learned about that surveillance video on Tuesday, but there was no mention of Melissa Ferguson, just the five men who are now arraigned and behind bars until a Court date in October. We asked Panton about that video which Police seem to think makes this case an open and shut one.

Herbert Panton, Attorney for William Mason

“All I will say is that from the very first press conference that the Police top brass has had, they have whipped this nation up into a frenzy and it is a frenzy with unrealistic expectations. I don’t know what they have in their possession. Upon disclosure date I will get that information, but they very well know that they continue to throw this piecemeal information out. They prejudice their own case and I ask the question again. Why has the D.P.P. not been consulted up to this point? That is the question I want you to put to the top brass of the police.”
