The Innocent Man
“He attended Ada High School and played on two state championship football teams. College and law school were at the University of Oklahoma, and when he passed the bar, he settled into his hometown and joined a small firm. In 1994, he ran for district court judge and easily defeated G. C. Mayhue, who had defeated Ronald Jones in 1990.Judge Landrith was well acquainted with Ron Williamson and the Carter murder, and when the Tenth Circuit affirmed Judge Seay, he knew the case was headed back to Ad...a, to his courtroom. Typical of a small town, he had represented Ron on a drunk-driving charge in the early 1980s; they briefly played on the same softball team; Landrith played high school football with Johnny Carter, Debbie’s uncle; and Landrith and Bill Peterson were old friends. During Ron’s murder trial in 1988, Landrith had slipped into the courtroom several times out of curiosity. Of course, he knew Barney well.It was Ada, and everybody knew everybody.Landrith was a popular judge, folksy and funny, but strict in his courtroom.MoreLess
