Bruce Loren Karey

I have a relative who is now a 68 year old man. When he was 48 years old (in 1994) my uncle, and another man were convicted of 1st degree murder. My uncle wrote his own writ of Habeas Corpus to the 9th Circuit court of appeals. The writ was granted on grounds of prosecutorial misconduct. The c...ase was set to b ase and dismissed the case midway thru trial. After 15 years of wrongful incarceration, my uncle, now 64, went home to his children and grandchildren. My uncle didn't know Mr. Karey. The first thing my uncle said to Mr. Karey was "are you sure your up to this? I'm serving a Life Without Parole sentence! " Hell yes! Bruce Karey won this case and gave us back our loved one, my uncle. retried in 2007. Mr. Bruce Karey was the lead trial defense sttorney. He assembled a great team to defend my uncle. He went to the crime scene, brought in witnesses from Bangladesh, and even found missing evidence (after 20 years) After 8 days of trial and 4 witnesses, this special circumstances murder case, tried by LADA Major Crimes Chief, Patrick Dixon, and LADA Prosecutor of the Year (2007) Robert Grace, was DISMISSED! After blistering cross-examination of the Prosecution's witnesses, the DA felt that they could no longer make their case and dismissed the case midway thru trial. After 15 years of wrongful incarceration, my uncle, now 64, went home to his children and grandchildren. My uncle didn't know Mr. Karey. The first thing my uncle said to Mr. Karey was "are you sure your up to this? I'm serving a Life Without Parole sentence! " Hell yes! Bruce Karey won this case and gave us back our loved one, my uncle.

My brother had Mr. Karey as his lawyer in a gang murder, conspiracy to commit murder, shootout with cops case. My brother was supposed to have been the shot-caller. There was a federal witness-protection informant. Mr. Karey went out to the crime scene area several times (Normandie and 109th in LA...) once at midnight on a Friday looking for witnesses. That's a heavy gang area. There ended up being two juries for three defendants. My brother was found not guilty. The other two defendants were found guilty. Karey did 90% of the cross-exam of all the witnesses. He was the only lawyer in the case to file any motions. He was the only lawyer to use experts and was the only defense attorney to use a media presentation for closing and opening. He didn't let the judge intimidate him. Judge thought my brother was guilty.
