In this episode of Wickedly Judged, Rebecca speaks with Scott Barmore, who maintains his innocence regarding new robbery allegations that resulted in a 60-to-life sentence. Scott turned himself in without legal counsel and argues he was convicted without an evidentiary hearing. We also address the State’s disputed claim about his high school completion—despite documentation that he had graduated at the time of the original offense. This conversation centers due process, factual accuracy, and the human impact of lengthy sentences.
Key Topics
- Self-surrender without counsel and early rights protection
- Allegations of three additional robberies contested by Scott
- Absence of an evidentiary hearing on the new charges
- Disputed probation narrative vs. documented high school graduation
- Why due process and factual accuracy are essential for legitimacy
Why This Matters Evidentiary hearings test credibility and evidence in open court. When that process is skipped or curtailed, outcomes risk resting on untested claims—undermining justice and public trust.
