Dear Mr. Lacey, March 23, 2005

I am writing you because of some concerns I have about the way Detective Peavy has handled a case against me. This is a case from an alleged incident that happened on September 16, 2001.

When Detective Peavy came out to my home to investigate a report filed four days after the date of the alleged incident by the alleged victim, the only witness on the scene at the time of the alleged incident was never interviewed, yet he was right there on the scene at the time of this so-called investigation. Detective Peavy asked me if there were any witnesses and I told him about Drew Mayo and I told him that he was here now and asked him if he would like to talk to him. He said, “No. That will not be necessary Mr. Walker”, and shook my hand and left. There was another investigator with Detective Peavy, but he had very little input.

After my arrest I called Detective Peavy and I asked him why he didn’t investigate the details of this before having me arrested. I told him how I was working hard to get a pardon from 1986 drug arrest and plea. I recorded this conversation and have it on tape. It is amazing how this detective makes it so damn clear that he does not care about the truth or about what happens to me. I don’t know why, but this detective seems to have some kind of dislike for me, and I wish I knew the answer to this. I believe that the jump to having “probable cause” was made by some simple facts being taken out of context. This woman’s Police Report is full of lies and one of them was the fact that an incident where she fell into a bathtub happened at my home at 4590 Knox Bridge Hwy. When I took these detectives into my Jacuzzi Room to get into some bright light to show them a bruise on my chest, the investigators immediately noticed that the wooden towel rack had come off the wall and was laying on the vanity. This fact is that this incident of this woman falling into a tub was an accident from me opening the bathroom door after she had slammed it on my heard, and then her, simultaneously, pulling on it. She later admitted that this was an accident in an interview with the detectives. She also later admitted that this did not happen at my home as she originally alleged, but at a Holliday Inn Hotel in Cedartown. This woman is a prolific liar and this is evident in studying this case. The problem is Detective Peavy and his dishonesty and incompetence in all this.

When the detectives came out to my home to seize my stepsons crossbow that this woman claims that I cocked, loaded, and pointed at her for no reason, I asked Detective Peavy to let me show him something that would, in of itself, prove this to be a lie. There was a thick layer of dust on the shaft of this crossbow from where it had set unused for over 2 ½ years. I was saluted by the City of Atlanta as an outstanding champion in Archery and, as per instructions I waxed the shaft of this crossbow when shooting it to protect the string from the friction of sliding on this shaft. This 150 lb. crossbow could not have been cocked without this dust being cleaned off the shaft by the string as it was pulled back. This crossbow was yanked from me without concern for this fact. What Detective Peavy did not know was that my attorney, Jeffery Rusbridge, and another witness that is an “expert” on crossbows, had observed this fact of this critical evidence a short time after the alleged incident.

When I went to trial on this over two years ago, this crossbow was brought into the courtroom with this shaft having been cleaned off completely, thus eliminating evidence that was part of the crux of my defense. This is all documented on the transcript of this trial. Why Judge Sumner did not dismiss this indictment against me that day, I will never understand. In fact there has been no hearings or investigations into the tampering of this evidence, which is a felony.

Please notify me of your findings on this.
