To the editor:

It makes one wonder if Kansas will ever do the right thing for Floyd Bledsoe, an innocent man who spent years in prison due to prosecutorial malfeasance and downright corruption. This innocent man couldn’t get a break in life, starting with a family that abandoned him and a judicial system that failed him. As Floyd said, there was no one to listen to him until the Innocence Project came to his aid.  

Now the question is: Will the state of Kansas compensate him for an unjust imprisonment? Of course not. After all, this is that conservative beacon that Gov. Brownback created, and a basic tenet of conservatism is to never admit a mistake. And I doubt they know the meaning of compassion.

I hope the online Go Fund Me campaign established on Bledsoe’s behalf will finally provide the support he so richly deserves.
