My Story/RoadBlock 1%er /How did Roadblock Get a 41+ Year Sentence?

ROADBLOCK 1%er
Beginning in 1982, I was indicted and prosecuted in back-to-back federal trials based on the same criminal conduct, evidence and witness testimony. The first trial was for what the government called "The Oklahoma drug Transaction." The second trial was for violating and conspiring to violate the Racketeering Influence and Corrupt Organization (RICO) Act.
In my appeals, I challenged the double prosecutions and sentences. The courts ruled that Congress intended that a person convicted for criminal conduct in one case could be tried for that same conduct a second time under the RICO Act.

CASES
Case number 82-0019-CR-T- GC: In March 1982, I was arrested on a five count indictment in the Middle District of Florida, Federal Court, Tampa Division. This drug case centered around the activities of the Outlaws Motorcycle club, the fact that I was a long-time member who had been the president of different chapters, and was the Florida Regional President at the time of my arrest. The physical evidence presented at trial was my Outlaws patches and four ounces of powdered cocaine.

Parole Commission Charges, Tries and Convicts RB 1%er of Nonexistent NC Murder

It’s difficult enough to get a fair parole hearing, without the United States Parole Commission fabricating a murder out of thin air and placing it in your file, but that’s what happened to me.
At my 1997 Parole Hearing, the Parole Commission charged, tried and convicted me of a nonexistent murder. Was it done on purpose? Was it inexcusable carelessness? What do you think?
FACTS:
In 1978, I received a conviction of Accessory After the Fact First Degree Murder for an April 1975 crime. Over the years, during my parole hearings, the Parole Commission repeatedly used this conviction even though their own records stated:
“....Since then, information has been presented on Mr. Harrell's behalf by an inmate in a North Carolina prison in Raleigh, North Carolina, that this inmate was present when the key witness against Mr. Harrell at the murder trial killed the victim.” (Emphasis added)

At the 1997 hearing, it became even worse. In the creative or careless hands of U.S. Parole Commission Examiner Raymond Essex, that favorable testimony by a North Carolina inmate clearing me of a Florida crime became twisted into a fictitious murder in North Carolina! The U.S.P.C. then inexcusably attributed this fictitious North Carolina murder to me, AND made it part of my record.

ROAD BLOCK'S BATTLE
FOR FREEDOM CONTINUES
1. What would you do if you were falsely accused, prosecuted and punished for killing a person you didn't even know?
2. What if a prosecutor continued with that prosecution even when the homicide investigators told him he had the wrong man on trial?
3. What if repercussions from that bogus trial lasted over thirty years, and prevented you from ever being free?
4. On April 25th, 1975, in Volusia County Florida, David W. "Stoney" Adamson's body was found floating in the Tomoka River. Adamson had been shot in the neck, slit from his chest to the abdomen, and dumped in the river with a concrete block tied around his neck. The Homicide investigation failed to turn up sufficient evidence linking anyone to this brutal crime.
