Description
Petitioner, Buchanon, who is serving a life sentence in the Jackson, Michigan State Prison for committing the murders of a husband and wife in rural Michigan in 1955, filed a habeas corpus petition for his discharge from prison under 28 U.S.C. § 2254 in the Eastern District of Michigan in 1979. His contentions that constitutional errors occurred in respect to his confession to the brutal killings and to his guilty plea, and to hearings in respect of his sentence to life imprisonment by the Michigan State Judge have been presented to a number of courts after his incarceration in 1956. His case is a kind of microcosm of the pro se actions taken by prisoners incarcerated for serious crimes in state prisons who present frequent challenges to the basis of their convictions and sentences, and the responses made by trial and appellate courts, state and federal, to these post-conviction efforts.
