``I am truly innocent of this crime,''
``Eventually the truth will come out.''
"I love you Mom, I love you Craig,
I Love you Fabrizio,
I Love you Patrizia,
I love you Tony."


"The Sea"

I am the sea, so bold and strong
I laugh and play all day long
Nothing can worry me
Because I'm completely free.

"The Sea" is by Derek Rocco Barnabei at age 5


"The Barnabei case represents one of the most egregious miscarriages of justice and one of the most compelling cases of innocence I have ever seen in all my years of practicing law."
Alan Dershowitz, Professor of Law, Harvard University

"You have a better chance in America to receive justice if you are rich and guilty than if you are poor and innocent"
Barry Scheck, Innocence Project, Cardozo School of Law
