[edit] Retarded attorney

In 1995, Porter's new legal representation had his IQ tested. It was measured at 51, meaning that he may have been mildly retarded.

Wow, I heard public defenders weren't the sharpest tools in the shed, but retarded? :) --Fxer 17:34, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Jerry or Terry Hilliard?

Does anyone know if it is Jerry or Terry Hilliard? On the German Wikipedia I wrote Terry but people were changing it to Jerry all the time and so I googled for it and found both names:

[edit] For Jerry

• 71,800 google results [1]
• thejusticeproject.org
• English G 2000 says Jerry (an English book for German pupils)

[edit] For Terry

• 58,800 google results [2]
• 4 Articles on the New York Times [3]
• The Chicago Reporter [4]

Anyone a suggestion how to solve this problem? --Church of emacs 19:32, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

There are still people changing it to Jerry and I still don't know what's correct. Is there anyone who can help here? --Church of emacs 19:28, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

It appears that Jerry Hillard was the victim of this case and Terry Hillard is a former Chicago Police Superintendent. For the purposes of this article, it seems that Jerry is correct. -- Upholder 20:33, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Ok, thanks for your help --Church of emacs 12:17, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
