While it is clear that Mr. Kian Khatibi was convicted of a crime he did in no ways commit, it is a grave mistake to classify the position of the District Attorney of Westchester County as believing in Kian's guilt for the crime in opposition to a reversal and that this was done to set the foundation to fight a further suit. <br /> Rather, more accurately, and it is a shame anything else was reported otherwise, the W.C.D.A.'s position was simply that they had believed that 'his guilt was [legally] proven beyond a reasonable doubt in the first trial, never did the W.C.D.A. allege that they believed him to be guilty now, nor that he is guilty. <br /> Further, the Office of the District Attorney under Janet DiFiore did not simply NOT oppose the dismissal of the indictment as Jeffery states, but matter of factly submitted the motion for dismissal, that being titled "Affirmation In Support Of Motion To Dismiss" based on the premise and their firm belief that no longer could Kian Khatibi's guilt be proven beyond a reasonable doubt considering the new developments, stating that "the People have concluded that a new trial of the defendant is not warranted", adding "The original evidence was primarily circumstantial". "Especially acute by the absence of any physical evidence linking the defendant to the crime", "neither witness saw a knife in defendant's hand". <br /> "Based on the consideration of all these factors, therefore, the People respectfully submit that further prosecution of the defendant will be declined, and request accordingly, that the instant indictment should be dismissed."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
