Barney & Hourihane, LLP Files Suit in Wrongful Conviction

Barney & Hourihane, LLP, along with the Law Office of Timothy J. Fiscella and Hammond Law, filed suit on October 3, 2016 against the City of Chicago and multiple Chicago Police Officers for manufacturing evidence to convict Renard Jackson of unlawful possession of a firearm. Jackson, a resident of Chicago's south side, spent nearly four years in jail for a crime he did not commit. Jackson was ultimately released from prison in December of 2015 after an appeals court threw out his conviction due to a lack of evidence. The Complaint can be read below.
