One of the more prominent cases that occurred during Mr. McCann's distinguished career as District Attorney was the prosecution of Milwaukee serial slayer Jeffrey Dahmer. Mr. McCann also acted to guard worker safety by prosecuting employers for recklessly causing job site deaths of employees in State of Wisconsin v. S.A. Healy Co. In State v. Chem Bio Corp., he secured homicide convictions against a laboratory for failing to detect incipient cancers which caused the death of two women.

Four Brave Souls Showed up to face their constituents.  Thanks to those who made time for us.   We had a light showing but hope everyone was watching the Presidential debates if they were not with us.  Sam Milsap gave a great speech on questions to ask a candidate to make a more educated decision of the candidates.  We have requested a print copy of the speech so we can post it here.  We did video tape the entire event and will be posting it soon.  If you click the read more below you will be taken to a slide show of the evening. 

Sam Millsap received his undergraduate and legal education at the University of Texas and has practiced law in San Antonio, Texas, for 35 years.  Millsap was elected Bexar County District Attorney in 1982 and served in that office until 1987.  He was selected as San Antonio’s "Politician of the Year" by both of San Antonio’s major daily newspapers in 1983. 

Among many notable prosecutions, Millsap prosecuted Ruben Cantu for capital murder; Cantu was executed in 1992.  In December, 2005, as a result of investigative reporting by the Houston Chronicle, serious questions were raised concerning Cantu’s guilt.  Millsap, acknowledging that he made an error in judgment when he decided to seek the death penalty on the basis of the testimony of a single eyewitness, has assumed personal responsibility for Ruben Cantu’s execution.  Millsap is the only former elected major metropolitan prosecutor in America who has prosecuted capital murder cases and is now an opponent of the death penalty.  Millsap has campaigned against the death penalty throughout the country and will speak at the United Nations in October.

In addition to many other awards, Millsap received the Texas Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty’s “Courage Award” in February, 2006.

Our Kick Off Conference was a great success.  First we would like thank Pastor John Otis for the rousing statement of our foundation in the judicial system.  We need a moral standard in our judicial system or the nation will crumble under its’ own weight.  This can be listened to by clicking here.  Secondly thank you to Katherine Kase for the enlightening and at times humorous session on the “Qualities of a good judicial candidate”.  We were impressed in her ability to take a topic usually considered dry and uninteresting and provide us with key and critical information and at the same time make it enjoyable.  

We have the video.  As well as the power point  of Katherine’s speech.
