Q Right. Now, you said that Danny’s attorney, Karla Rogers represented you several
months before the trial? What was that for?
A Yes, She represented me before .Uh, the last time I went to prison in Orange
County, which I believe was somewhere in the mid nineties
Q OK.
A She was appointed to me.
Q OK.
A And I was without funds. And she got me a four year sentence in the Texas
Department of Corrections on a plea bargain deal.
Q OK. Do you think that had any effect on her representing Danny?
A I think that in my own personal belief that she shouldn’t have represented Danny
‘cause it’s a conflict of interest.
Q Yeah.

A There I was the star testimony for the prosecution and she had already represented
me, plus the fact that while I was in the courtroom giving my testimony, she just sat there
like she didn’t have a care in the world, or her mind was of somewhere else.

A And the only questions she asked me was, she said, “Gary,” she said, “You are

Q Weak. OK.
A And he elaborated on the fact that this was his first murder trial while in office
and he needed a conviction. He needed it bad.
Q Yeah, yeah. OK. Uh, were you a part of or are you aware of any other cases
that Kimbrough shaped and molded the evidence and everything to obtain a conviction?
A No sir. I was referred to before my release from jail at that time during that case,
when I was being released by Mr. Ellis, I was told to contact Sheriff Jefferson and Lynn
Arceneaux, detectives of the city police department, as part of my release I was to work
with them on some drug busts and setups. That’s what he said.

anything happening with that. We don’t even have to talk about that now. You know?
