Finding William Hamilton Teresa Black Case

Shannon went on A&E network & stated Ava caused her & Jackson to lose the Teresa Black case. When in fact Shannon only spoke with me Ava for abt 5 mins 1st day of trial & hrs b4 trial started. She had not studied this case. She only had 2&3 hand info of prior statements..She let William down, Then bl...amed Ava for her short comings for her not making herself knowledgable of the time in mid 90’s what was a major factor of this case Teresa Black killed her son but was only given 10 yrs due to covering Williams body.. The justice she gave was to Ava pushing blame on her bc she failed at upholding her oath.. Now she has the look of shame everytime she sees me bc she betrayed William & myself to uphold her failure to get justice.. She made excuses & blamed Ava.. Shannon is not the attorney i would use for anything. Not honest & she will cut corners or throw anyone under the bus to save her name. All i wanted was justice for William what Shannon gave was uneducated abt the ppl in the case she was more educated on just the police report a complete let down.
