Ester "Gene" Wohner is in incarceration @ Grayson County Detention Center. His incarceration that took place September 16 th 2008, to date he hasn't been released even with DNA proving his innocence. When he was taken into custody he was beaten for one and a half hours, he was heavily intoxicated and cohersed into a confession to rape and sodomy of his step daughter, 7 years old at the time. His son, Travis Wohner seen the bruises and swelling of his face when he visited the detention facility. They placed a cash bond of $50,000 late last year, which wasn't raised for his release. (story continued below)
Additional information
This is the article announcing the details of his incaceration in the GC News Gazette. I'm certain that his miranda rights were violated...due to his beating at the time of his arrest and not being coherent to drive, talk or let alone confess to ANYTHING. I have attached a link to the article written 09/22/2008. http://www.gcnewsgazette.com/printer_friendly/1504583 - the DNA collected at the hospital - DIDN'T match Gene's DNA. He's basically being held because of the confession. He has been assigned a public defender that has an incredibly heavy case load and can't devote the time necessary to clear his name. Answers (1)

Fabricating evidence against a person violates the color of law statute, taking away the person's rights of due process. You need to contact an experienced civil rights lawyer in the jurisdiction in which the alleged violations occurred. The lawyer needs to have extensive experience litigating Title 42 section 1983 lawsuits against the government or its agencies.
